You need LabVIEW and "NI Vision Acquisition" software, then in LabVIEW go to the menu Help>Find Examples and search for "IMAQdx". Select an example like "Grab", select the camera in the "Camera Name" control and then run. Also read the documentation for IMAQdx. You can configure the attributes of you camera using "Tools>Measurement and Automation Explorer".
FLIR also has their own LabVIEW driver, but I would advise you use IMAQdx instead (I just finished a FLIR-using project myself).
Oh, for saving video search for "AVI" under Find Examples and you'll find the examples "Grab and save to AVI" and "Read AVI", which basically together do exactly what you want.
