SWF is a file extension for a Shockwave Flash file format. SWF files can contain video and vector based animations and sound and are designed for efficient delivery over the web. SWF files can be viewed in a web browser using the Flash plugin or in the computer using VLC player or any other flash player, but I prefer VLC because this player is fantastic and can open and run any type and format video source.

What is VLC Player & Can it play SWF files?

VLC is an open-source application that allows playing and converting many types of formats.

SWF is a video file/clip that can hold an animation created with Adobe Flash and can be played by Flash Player or with a web browser that has the Flash plugin installed. Some SWF files hold only autoplay animations and some hold interactive content that awaits user engagement to proceed (for example, flash games are very popular and are built by using interactive SWF flash).

VLC can convert noninteractive SWF files to various formats. Please note, that SWF files recorded by screencasting software such as screencast.com, TechSmith Jing and others are interactive and therefore you’ll need a different video converter to perform that conversion (please see VIP Video Converter below).
