Because FLVs are required for our Engage interactions, we have been looking around for SWF-to-FLV conversion software. Does anyone use a conversion application that is reliable and easily upgraded when new versions of the same software comes out -- specifically one from a well-known and reputable company, not the one-off companies that I've been finding online. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I actually tried FormatFactory yesterday and ran into the same problem. It would not let me take a SWF and convert it to anything. Seems most applications out there don't like SWFs for some reason. Thanks!
I convert SWF's to other file types all of the time with FormatFactory. When you first open it up, there's a scroll bar on the left with an item that says "All to FLV". Click on that, choose the Add File button, select All Files from the drop-down next to File name, select your SWF file, and convert it.
"FormatFactory use system installed codec to decode sourec files. you must install some codec that your files needed. You can install "K-Lite" or other codec pack to solve this problem."
There might be something unique with your SWF files that are causing the issue. Unfortunately, I've never had problems converting SWF to FLV files. So, I'm not much help.
You can use bvcsoft SWF to FLV converter .i'm using their swf to mp4 converter.it works great for me.I find if you drag other video format into the program.it can help me convert my other popular video files to flv,mp4.wmv,mov,avi,mpeg etc format.I like volume normalizer function too. very great.

Hi Betsy,
I use Any Video Converter. They have a very good free version.

Thanks so much for the suggestion, Tiago. Unfortunately, the program doesn't allow for SWF to FLV conversion. :(

Hi Betsy,
I'd recommend taking a look at a program called FormatFactory. It will let you convert SWF to FLV.

Hi Brian,
I just tried it again and I receive a "Failed to Decode" message.

Hi Betsy,
From FormatFactory's website:
"FormatFactory use system installed codec to decode sourec files. you must install some codec that your files needed. You can install "K-Lite" or other codec pack to solve this problem."
You can download the K-Lite Codec Pack here:

After installing it, you'll need to restart your computer & then try the conversion again.
The Moyea converter works nice. Not free, but easily converts SWF to just about anything you could want.
So, I installed the codecs and am receiving the same errors with FormatFactory. :(

I think the swf to flv converter from moyea will work:
