Some of them are, some of them are other types of files. Sort the
folder for file types and scroll down. Look for Flash files. If not
found, scroll further down to mpeg files or something like that.

However, a few days ago I saw a clip that didn't appear in the Opera
cache folder. So I found another way, I don't think you need Opera for
this:
Right click the video, click ”Copy video address” (or something
similar, maybe depends on your web browser).
Now open VLC → click ”Open network stream” → paste to the network URL
field → Select ”Convert” → Enter things like name of the output file
and maybe some more things → click ”Start”.
