ConvertSWF
===========
By Daniel Cook (Sheffield, England, UK) 2009, released under GPL

This is a bash shell script to convert from .swf to .avi, for example:

./ConvertSWF input.swf output.avi

It requires:

1) dump-gnash *see below
2) mencoder
3) ffmpeg
4) codecs to go with 2) & 3)
5) a lot of hard disk space!

It works by using dump-gnash to play the swf, dumping the video output as raw video.
Then it extracts the sound, encodes the video to avi then remuxes the audio in.

* to get dump-gnash, this is a bit tricky as to get this you have to compile the source code.
For instruction on this:
