Hi I’m working on a project and I need serious help!

I’ve made a .swf flash movie which I need to convert into regular video. Preferably something raw or uncopressed so I can do further editing and some audio in After Affects. I’ve tried a bunch of shareware swf \> avi program things but they all suck. Some take a long time to render and then the video is only the first frame of a 2400 frame movie. Another skips frames, doesn’t render movie clip symbols… I found out after I made the video that the flash export to avi ignores all action script and symbols and that everything must be placed into a gigantic, hugely layered file.

Does anyone know of a way or program to convert an swf to video? I can’t publish as a .mov either because that only allows flash 5 and that sucks. If I can’t find a way to export the movie clips and everything at a consistent speed then I’ll have to create the movie all over again. Which will be not fun. Any help is appreciated.

The programs I have tried are listed below. If you know of any really good software for this I might be able to buy please let me know.

Thanks, goodapollo
