I played the two files and they are the same video.
If a62c3eca98e0a01e.flv is a temporary ID I'm wondering if it makes sense to cache it. I observed that same of these temporary IDs have been served many times:
b5325c5303b2eaa3 CACHE_HIT YOUTUBE Video was served from cache. b5325c5303b2eaa3 CACHE_HIT YOUTUBE Video was served from cache.
