Adobe obfuscated the /tmp file method several updates ago. The flash
plugin still creates a /tmp file, but it immediately removes the file
link causing any "ls /tmp" calls to not see a file. You can still get
the file data through /proc.
$ ps -ef | grep plugin
# copy the PID of flash ($PID)
$ ls -l /proc/$PID/fd
# find the /tmp/flashXXXXXX file symlink ($FD)
$ cp -p /proc/$PID/fd/$FD /home/foo/flash.flv
