http://wordrider.net/freerapid still works, ugly thing made in Java but it's constantly updated when facebook/youtube change something.

I had a similar issue yesterday (downloading a FB video); however, today the download went through. Perhaps some limitations on the FB side.

[JamesTheAwesomeDude]

Cannot reproduce, either.
