The buttons, progress bar, volume control, etc are all natively built in flash, but the video itself may have originated from any number of formats. I don't know all the specifics, but I think everything from .mov to .avi and others are supported in FLV conversion.</p> <p>I hope that helps.</p> <p>(if you want to download a .swf file, typically you should be able to find its actual location on the server you're visiting by checking the html source) </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1325#post-7847 Tue, 03 Jul 2007 10:37:49 +0000 alexiussg 7847@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>use Super converter(www.erightsoft.com), but if your swf has mouse click events, sounds on-off button, play/pause buttons etc the converters won't work. :) </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1325#post-7843 Tue, 03 Jul 2007 10:11:16 +0000 ender 7843@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>I was just wondering, does anyone knows here, what the difference between swf and flv files are??<br /> I just dl the goatd from yesterday , and it works perfectly for me, but i have always wondering, why those million of sites, that allow us to download and convert flv files for free from youtube &#38; co (like <a href="http://www.media-convert.com," rel="nofollow">www.media-convert.com,</a> <a href="http://www.zamzar.com," rel="nofollow">www.zamzar.com,</a> <a href="http://www.vixy.net" rel="nofollow">www.vixy.net</a> and two dozen others) but none of them worked with swf files. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1263#post-7839 Tue, 03 Jul 2007 07:15:23 +0000 Lee 7839@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Well ender, usually something comes along which we all need, even if it's by another company just a small wait is all it takes.</p> <p>Hope it suits you.</p> <p>At least it's not yet another screensaver huh. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1263#post-7834 Tue, 03 Jul 2007 06:20:54 +0000 ender 7834@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Hi Lee, just wanted to say thanks to the GOATD team, Moyea SWF to Video Converter Pro did perfectly converted the swf file that I wanted. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1285#post-7363 Tue, 26 Jun 2007 07:39:58 +0000 ender 7363@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>oh , thanks bubby, i totally missed that!<br /> i just went to their download site, and saw single user licence, and thought, we had to pay for it! </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1285#post-7348 Mon, 25 Jun 2007 22:33:40 +0000 BuBBy 7348@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>according to their site,</p> <p>"Flash Wallpaper commercial licenses prices start at $49.95. <em>Flash Wallpaper is free for personal use only.</em>" </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1285#post-7341 Mon, 25 Jun 2007 15:18:12 +0000 ender 7341@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>I would like to see this software!<br /> it would be cool , since i found a couple of cool flash movies on the net!</p> <p><a href="http://www.tenmiles.com/flashwallpaper/index.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.tenmiles.com/flashwallpaper/index.php</a> </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1272#post-7261 Fri, 22 Jun 2007 14:22:10 +0000 BuBBy 7261@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>First guess - DEP. (It's happened to me before).</p> <p>DEP Issue<br /> This only effects certain CPU's using the so called NX bit.<br /> Additionally you MUST have XP SP2, OR Windows Server 2003 with SP1 to add this mod.<br /> You need to disable data execution prevention for vtf.exe</p> <p>Click Start button. Click Settings. Click Control Panel. Click System. When the System Properties box comes up, you'll see many tabs up at the top. Click Advanced. In the first section of the Advanced box, you'll see "Performance" and a button labeled "Settings". Click the Settings button. You'll see another window come up for Performance Options with three tabs at the top. Click "Data Execution Prevention".</p> <p>By default, it's set to the top option; "Turn on DEP for essential..."<br /> Click the circle underneath that, labeled "Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select:" (You'll see a message at the bottom that your pc does not support hardware DEP blah blah blah.)</p> <p>Click the button on the bottom labeled "Add". A box will come up labeled Open. Click that. It will probably default to showing a view of files under your profile name. At the top, where it says "Look in:" click the down arrow next to whatever folder name is inside the box. Browse to and select "vtf.exe". Double click that. You should now see that it is added to the DEP window as an exception. Click Apply on the bottom of the Performance Options box. Close all the System Properties Windows.</p> <p>Reboot</p> <p>Check if that fixes it. If not - just set the option back how it was and reboot.</p> <p>Secondly - try running without antivirus or antispyware type software running - they might be conflicting or blocking it (incorrectly). </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1272#post-7254 Fri, 22 Jun 2007 12:38:32 +0000 piscote49 7254@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Yesterday I posted (see original post below) about not being able to run "Video to Flash's" main application (VTF.exe).</p> <p>The other exe files (flvplayer.exe &#38; SAFlashPlayer.exe) run fine.</p> <p>I have reinstalled twice &#38; verified that I have the correct permissions in my registry.</p> <p>I am able to view .swf &#38; .flv on the internet and can access Flash files with other programs.</p> <p>I am at a loss, and hope that someone will post a workable solution. </p> <p>As much as I want the problem solved so I can use the program, I want it more because of all the time I have put into trying to get it to work.
