If I try "right-clicking" (that is, holding the button for a few seconds) the "download video" button, the only result is that the text of the button is selected. So, I don't know how to download the video for offline playback in my Android 4.2.2 phone.

"right-clicking" (that is, long tapping the button) "Download video" didn't help, but I was now able to download the video just by "left-clicking" (that is, tapping) that button. I believe it might be because of a recent update to Firefox for Android. Thank you for your time!
