[gentoo-user] De-compiling shockwave flash files.

2005-12-29 Thread Stroller
I want to extract some video from a Shockwave Flash (.SWF) file a  
little Googling reveals they're containers and that lots of other  
content can be stored within them.


I see loads  loads of demo or shareware decompilers for windows  
which will allow the video c to be extracted from a .swf but nothing  
for Linux. Does anyone have any suggestions, please?


To be honest, I have a PC  a Mac here I could run the extraction on,  
the important thing is that the software be free  unrestricted or  
preferably just Free or OSS. It's not an important job, so I'd rather  
not pay money for something I only want to use once.
