This has been doing my head in and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to download this SWF webpage.
It starts by loading story.swf then it makes calls to other SWF files as it goes along.
The flash itself is interactive this the need to call different segments a it loads the next 'slide'.
But I cannot figure out a way to download it for offline use. I tried loading the entire document which was 200mb and downloading the cache - no go. I tried to use extensions on chrome, Safari and Firefox - no avail
I really don't want to screen capture the entire file, but I was wondering if there were interactive flash file downloaders. I can see there are over 1000 files but cant download them
As #VC.One said, it is not possible due to the server needing to be present. It was constantly changing the string attached to the swf

I am trying to create a website that should display videos stored on a server accessable trough a database.
The videos are storaged as .mxf files and are quite large and high quality.
I am not able to convert the files to MP4 which would solve the issue since i could use HTML5 video to display them.
I need to be able to pause/play, jump to different parts of the videos, change volume and all that as well.
I have tried to find a player that allows me to do this for some time now but have not found one. Does any body know if there is a player that requires no installation client side and can play the .mxf files in browser? Or if there is any way i can create the functionallity myself?
I'm creating a flash game that includes two characters. One that is dynamically loaded from a url and the other that's already present on stage. Both characters load up just fine when testing within flash professional but when testing on a browser or opening the swf file itself, neither character loads.
I've already set my playback security settings to "network access only" as suggested in this question: Flash not working in browser but works fine on computer and it still isn't working.
Both images are strips that show the complete character's animation in one picture itself and through the use of masks and code, I'm able to depict each frame of animation.
Here's the file itself if you need to check it out for yourself.
swf file here
I tried but couldn't do it.
I tried getting the .sfw file from the source code but the file I got was only 2kb and it did not work. I got a white/gray screen when I launched it. I tried to download the whole website and search for the .sfw file I got the same result. I tried it with chrome and firefox.
I need to launch the .swf file and play it offline. This is my only purpose. Here is the game im trying to get.

If the game wasn't designed to be played offline, I'd give up.
I recently took up a job creating a video ad banner to advertise on a major website, but they require that the swf uploaded is under 40kb in it's 'initial flash load'. This would be fine, except the video player itself is around 50kb, even though the actual video is loaded externally.
I've already optimised the ad as much as possible and got it to 86kb, so is there any way to reduce the file size further?
any images make sure they are compressed as much as possible while looking acceptable
textfields, dont embed all the font glyphs, embed only the characters you need
any embedded audios, make sure they are compressed
remove any libraries that are not used
remove the UIComponent flv player which adds a lot of space and create it with code, this will save a ton of code for you

I am trying to embed QuickTime movies into my HTML/ASPX pages but somehow they work on local machine but when i deploy them on my server they dont play at all. I tried all sorts of options but still unable to find a reason for that.
anybody else have been though this issue ?
I did a quick research and find few resources but even though following them works on my local machine but not on production. I am wandering , do i need to setup some sort of streaming to just embed few videos files or what ?
and yeah i did follow the apple article too (who put the blame on simply internet explorer) while my firefox shows the same result. I got the image (startup) but no video as i click to play.
One video is of 11 MB while other is 50 MB. I renamed the files by removing all the spaces now and i can see the QuickTime plugin initiating but after a while the Question Mark is appearing on the QuickTime Logo. Mime type is also video/quicktime so which is correct.
Actually the issue was not with my Page, The QuickTime movies require QuickTime (mov movies) and ITune (m4v movies)to be installed on Server. Hence after installing both softwares, the issues are resolved
How large are the videos? If you are not streaming the plugin may need to download the entire file before it can play, whereas locally it does not. That could cause a very long pause before the movie starts.
Point your browser directly to the movie's URL — not the containing page. See what error you get. Also, is the MIME type correct?
