.swf (flash) to DVD converter

Hi all,
I'm looking for a good freeware/shareware flash to DVD converter that will allow me to copy my flash movies onto a DVD. I've tried google, but a lot of these programs have proven problematic, any recommendations as to a good program which you have used?

EDIT: I've been playing around with a lot of converters, but am unable to figure out what I need to do to make these files work with a DVD. Some programs just give me the .mpg files, which don't seem to work on my DVD player.

Hope my previous post made sense, I had spent four hours after work trying to figure this out and was feeling a little exhausted
I discovered that I can use Nero VisionExpress which came with my Nero package on the computer, to create a DVD. I used a program which converts .swf (flash files) to .mpg (DVD format mpeg files), which seems to work perfectly after NeroVision Express formats the DVD etc. The only problem is that the sound doesn't match up!
On and upwards, I'll post if I have any success with this.

To my knowledge, there are no software that supports Flash movie as input file format.

Just a thought, have you considered the old fashion method, capture the Flash movie?


Antony, a very happy Mac user.

Snape--Following on what Antony has suggested, perhaps this will help with the download of the .swf file

But if you want to play the DVD away from the PC then you will need a converter. Have you looked at all those offered here

Thanks for your feedback guys.
I used an .swf cache capture tool to initially save the flash, converted the .swf files to .mpg (dvd format) with a program called Amor swf to Video Converter, then compiled it all into a movie DVD use Nero Vision Express (after downloading a plugin which enabled the DVD burning function).


All the best,
S
