Any free SWF compressors out there?

[BMAN4]

Hello everyone,

I'm creating a simple Flash video with a free program. It works great but the output SWF file is huge. Are there any free SWF file compressors out there? I don't work with Flash much otherwise I wouldn't mind paying for a good one.

Thanks!

Hmmm, I would say you would be better off hiring a professional to build your flash file. As he could build it correctly so that it is already compressed.

mmh how did u come to get the .swf file without compressing the .fla?? Macromedia Flash can compress too i bet

Thanks but I'm looking for a *free* option. Last time I checked hiring a professional costs money.

It's from Wink. I had to choose the uncompressed SWF option because the compressed option has a bug in it that won't play past a certain number of frames. Hence the need for a 3rd party compressor.

I said I wouldn't mind paying for a good one IF I worked with Flash much (which I don't).

This is just a small non-commercial project that I'm doing to help a few people out. Hence the reservation in spending any money on it.
