Curious if anyone knows of any system/s within Storyline or if there are softwares available online for converting a Storyline Flash file [.swf] into a straight video file [e.g. MP4]?

I ask as I’ve used Articulate to create a number of Camtasia-style screen-videos, and as they’re ‘just’ pure screen-capture videos, I’d like to be able to  just convert them straight into MP4 videos.

Is this possible though? And if so, how?

Thanks for any help,

Nick

Holy smokes Nick -- what a giant pain in the butt this is.  Because the new Articulate product doesn't work well with flash I had to embark on a quest to convert over 1000 swf files to mp4.  I spent weeks agonizing over this, I was astound by how difficult this was. I must've downloaded five different programs to try and set up a system to "batch" the conversion.

I ended up paying a guy in Sri Lanka to do it.  The communication with him were tough but he finally got it done.  Let me know if you want his info.  I never did find a program that was a simple, batch-able program to just dump a bunch of swf in one end and spit out mp4 in the other.  Actually I did, but the audio would never end up working right.
