Kwpolska your comment is utter useless...  sometimes your forced to use
silverlight ( dutch netflix like application )

Anyway I have found a way to get around lovely silverlight if you have
the moonlight extension installed with Firefox you should be able todo this:

MOONLIGHT_OVERRIDES=keepmedia=yes firefox &

grep "href" /tmp/MoonlightProgressiveStream.*

This should give you an url of the the stream which you can play with
mplayer. Worked for me with a dutch silverlight stream months ago¸so no
guarantees ;)
