I have a link here.. will post it someone that can help me out..

its a video in .swf format.. not sure what that is..

i can't seem to save it anyhow.. i can see it fine in IE.. but not "save as" at all

the file is 2.7MB so not too big.

Could someone download it.. save it into something like a .mov file or something..

I can keep it then and use it on my demo reel..

TA!!!!

You preprared for a loss of quality? Resaving out video will make it recompress again.

I could try though. Trying to think if Premiere supports both those formats or not...

.swf is a flash file, you could probably find a free conversion utility somewhere google came up with a few shareware thingys

Hi.

You can't save it (swf) unless you have the source or original file. That's one of the ideas behind flash stuff, it keeps it protected so people can't save, alter or rip to other formats.

I remember a proggy though, somthing called flash ripper I think.

What is the URL of the page/file?
I could try to extract it.

you can grab it from your Temp Internet files or something.

No luck.

Anyone got any suggestions for a PC converter? I'm not finding anything yet.

dont think saving it is the problem (i just tried with weebl and bob and managed to save an .swf dead easy) ...

... converting it to .mov seems to be the issue
