No there is not. Assuming you are talking about a true streaming video, no, you can't save it, because it doesn't exist. You are just getting a stream of bytes in real-time.
In theory, there is no reason why somebody could not hack the protocol, collect all the bytes, and save it (maybe by just hacking the window at runtime) but in practice I haven't seen it made available.
A lot of people, though when they say "streaming media" just mean a .rm or .ram file, which is not streaming media at all - in that case you just right-click and save.
