Can you try starting with a clean firefox profile and see if it works better.
You can start ff with

Code:
firefox -ProfileManager
to open up the profile manager which allows you to create a new profile and allows switching the default profile.

The mozilla-kde-support package is current. I tried a new profile and it behaved in the same way. Images downloaded correctly, though I only tried a couple. Video Download Helper downloaded via the "don't ask where to put it" option to dwhelper, but telling it where to go resulted in no download. Maybe this is a problem with Video Download Helper. But it did affect still images originally.
I'll try some other downloaders.
Installed Download YouTube Videos as MP4. Worked the first time but then not, nothing happens after hitting "save".
