How do I convert a SWF file to OGV using your online tool?

Upload your SWF animation, choose output resolution (e.g., 1080p), and select video/audio bitrate. The converter rasterizes each frame into Theora video and encodes Vorbis audio. Download the OGV file and embed it via HTML5 tag. Note that interactive SWF elements (buttons, scripts) won't carry over—only visual frames are captured.

Why should I convert SWF to OGV instead of keeping the Flash file?

OGV is an open-source container using Theora/Vorbis codecs, supported in Firefox, Chrome, and Opera without plugins. SWF requires Adobe Flash Player, which is discontinued and blocked in all major browsers. Converting to OGV makes your content playable on modern web, reduces file size through lossy compression, and avoids security warnings. It also works in video players like VLC.

What happens to transparency, animation layers, and audio when converting SWF to OGV?

The OGV container does not support alpha channels, so transparency is lost—background becomes a solid color (default white). Each frame of the timeline is rendered into a raster video stream; vector shapes are flattened and can create larger files if complex. Audio tracks are preserved if they're in the SWF, but we transcode them to Vorbis with adjustable bitrate (64-320 kbps). Frames with ActionScript interactions are not exported; only the visual playback is captured.
