Convert to SWF File Format
In the Free Video to Flash Converter dialog box make the following entries:
- Click the Browse... button beside the Input Video file: text box and locate the YouTube video file you downloaded in the earlier steps.
- By default, the program will complete the Output Video file text box, using the same file folder as above and adding on a generic file name. Browse to a different folder if you choose. Replace the file name with one of your own choosing, if you want something different than the generic file name applied.
- Using the Formats drop down list, make sure to select SWF as the file type. This will add the SWF file extension (the Adobe Flash file format) to the end of the file name you added in the step above.
- Optional: Click the Trim video... button to select a specific portion of the YouTube video to convert, if you wish.
- By default, the box is checked beside Show HTML example file after conversion. This will save your converted video also as an HTM file, and will open a browser window showing the video. You may choose to skip this step by removing the checkmark.
- Optional: Click the Trim video... button to select a specific portion of the YouTube video to convert, if you wish.
- Click the Convert button.
- Note - The conversion time will vary depending on the size of the original YouTube video.
- Click the Output folder to locate the SWF file or click Close to end the session.
