Here's what I use, usually with something along the lines of mplayer
$(flashcache)


#!/bin/sh

set -e

pids=$(pgrep -f libflashplayer)

found=0
for p in $pids
do
        for f in /proc/$p/fd/*
        do
                if readlink "$f" | grep Flash > /dev/null
                then
                        found=1
                        echo $f
                fi
        done
done

if [ $found -eq 0 ]
then
        echo "$0: no flash cache" >&2
        exit 1
fi
