SWF2Video Pro for Windows

Used SWF2Video Pro for Windows?

Editors’ Review

We were disappointed with the mixed results we got from SWF2Video Pro, a utility for converting Flash SWF files to AVI video. On the plus side, converting a 1,000-frame movie took only a few minutes. A decent set of options lets you select frame dimensions, start and end frames, audio and video codecs, and recording volume. You also can set the program to automatically split files above a certain size. However, SWF2Video Pro failed to convert movies containing action scripts (that is, movies that require you to click a Play button). The batch mode doesn't allow you to move several files to the queue with one click, and the program can only extract movie frames to PNG or TGA format. In sum, SWF2Video Pro does a reasonably good job converting basic SWF files, but it needs work before it can compete with the best products in this category.

Invaluable for non-linear Flash animations

Summary
I'm an animator and a lot of the work I do is non-linear, or programatic: particle systems, game development, hierarchical menus, etc, where everything is done by code, rather than manual tweening. SWF2Video captures everything PERFECTLY! I cannot praise this tool enough - it allows me to take my Flash animation an put it on my showreel, and before long, I don't see why I can't start animating in Flash for television work. The tool is easy to use, captures to TGA or PNG with alpha, and responds to mouse movement, although not keyboard movement as yet (Nov 2004) though you should check as they will hopefully rectify this. To the gentleman who left the negative review - I think perhaps you should educate yourself on animating in Flash. This tool fills a very important gap and does it very, very well, where others have failed miserably. WELL DONE to Flashants!

Who needs this? You can convert SWF to almost every video format with QuickTime Pro. Just download QuickTime 6.5 and register it for 20 Euros. Who would pay 180 U.S. $ for a program? My advice is: Go to AppleÂ’s site and get QuickTime Pro! I do not see future for this program. I wonder if someone could sell this program in Serbia and Montenegro. Here you can bye any program you need for just 150 Dinars (3 U.S. $) because software piracy is legal. I think no one here would bye this program even for price of 3 $. Everyone has a QuckTime. Do not waste your time for downloading this!
