.Swf to .mov... Why?

[Phable]

I'm trying to convert my .swf to an .mov file but nothing seems to give me the quality I want... I've seen flash videos on youtube that look amazing and I just don't understand how that quality is achieved. My video always ends up slightly laggy which makes my lip-synching look terrible.

I've exported .mov's from Flash CS6 and they all look produce the lag. (I've tried every compression)
I've downloaded Moyea and I didn't get lag but the quality just looks like shit.
I've tried Camtasia studio and that looked and sounded like shit.

I just don't get it. There has to be a proper way to do this.

I'm also using a V-Cam so I can't do the image sequence/audio file trick.

If you download a demo of Premier Elements or After Effects, then you can import the SWF into there and output a mov.

Thanks for the response. I actually have the full version of both of those programs, but unfortunately, my animation uses a V-cam... which means the actionscript won't translate over to After Effects or Premiere

Copy all of your frames, paste them into a new graphic symbol, and then place the graphic symbol on the stage and motiontween it around. I know it would take some work, but you can completely replace your v-cam this way :(

What you can do is Google "swf to mp4" (Why would you want a mov) and use a generic converter, some work well and some don't just tinker around with it until you find a good one.

Is that the alternative? I suppose it would work, it just sounds really unconventional. So I would just animate everything first then, huh?

there is a way easier way. use self rendering vcam http://blog.pinkandaint.com/flash-tools/
it exports a .png sequence that includes any action script effects and such. then import them into after effects and export as a .mov.

use swivel:

its newgrounds video exporter, its amazing and will do just what you need!

it will however go out as a .mp4 but you can always use a converter to .mov
