converting swf to mp4

I really agree with your idea.
Now, many tools are technically able to realize the conversion. And,I just tried some converters from the suggestions, finding many of them charged. Then I searched new solution and think the free swf to mp4 converter from this googled post is a good option.

I've been reading so many different forums on how to convert SWF to MP4. Finally, I summarized three solutions:

First one: HandBrake . This tool is a free and open-source multi-threaded transcoding app. It supports nearly any videos including WMV format and has Mac version and Windows version.

Cons:

1. HandBrake is too professional to handle for most people;
2. It doesn't support MOV as output format.

Second one: there are many third party software which supports converting SWF to MP4. I just test one of them. It's professional yet easy to use and the service is excellent. And there is a step by step guide about how to use this tool to convert SWF to MP4 on Mac

Cons:

Most of them are not free.

Third one: Online-Converter . This kind of converter does a great job on file conversion.

Cons:

1. Like most online converters, the free version of this tool only allows you to convert videos smaller than 100MB. It's too small for video conversion;
2. 2.Your MKV video should be upload to the internet to be converted. This means the risk of pravite information leak is possible.

I think you can try new Bigasoft Total Video Converter. I got a newsletter said they updated SWF decoder and make SWF Conversion more table.

Here is a guide to convert SWF to MP4 on Mac.
