I'm not a programmer so I'm probably not using the right words but when I'm in Firefox and press F12 to get to the console (?) where can I find the address of the video that's currently displayed on the page (to download with wget or yt-dlp)? I tried element picker but nothing that looks like an address appeared.

TIA!
