There are probably a number of ways to do it, but I used the Copy URL option on several of the files linked via VideoDownloadHelper. I copied these URLs to a text window and found the links for the quality I was looking for and some of the file fragment numbers. Next, I opened the DownloadThemAll Manager window (Firefox->Tools->DownThemAll! Tools->Manager) and clicked the (+) button. The resulting Download: text window was populated with the text I had happened to put in my clipboard (which ended in "Seg1-Frag762") and I just changed the 762 to [762:2000], the range I wanted to capture. I clicked on Start! and then "Download Batch" and voila!, the files proceded to be saved.

I'm not sure it's going to do any good, though, because I can't seem to join them together to play.
