  • .swf -> AVI or MPEG

    From Geri Atricks@21:3/235 to All on Sun Aug 23 20:27:08 2026
    Does anyone have any experience to converting Flash videos into AVI or MPEG formats? I have a music video that is in SWF format, I tried using FFMPEG to convert it, but it only converted over the audio portion, not the video.

    I haven't converted Flash videos specifically, but I wonder if Handbrake could do it (though I'd guess maybe not). If nothing else, I suppose you could use a screen recorder to record the SWF video playing, and the screen recorder could record in whatever format you want.
