Flash movies can be converted to animate GIF and AVI formatted video with this tool.
It allows you to convert Shockwave Flash movies in SWF format. It handles FLV format videos too. You have the facilities to convert to animated GIF or AVI format video with this program. While SWF movies are generally better looking and more attractive, there are situations where you need to use these two formats. Animated GIFs are usually very lightweight and AVI is the most popular video format on the net. While SWF viewing requires a flash player support, an AVI video can be viewed by a much larger audience. GIFs can be easily supported on websites and your visitor does not need anything other than a plain viewer. Animated GIFs are the most popular animation format on the web.
The interface is is easy even for a first time user of the tool. You load the flash file, choose the appropriate tab for conversion from SWF to AVI and SWF to GIF. The appropriate parameters appear beside the preview area. Besides resolution, frame rate and background color, for AVI conversion; video codec, bitrate, sample rate, audio settings are allowed. For GIF output color depth, looping and transparency settings are available. After you have set these, you can start the conversion with a single click. There are two modes to select from prior to the conversion, you can leave it to the default also. The modes are frame by frame or real-time play modes. This is a very simple tool for the application area discussed above.
