| So, I did an experiment. I opened Unyl_is_love.swf in SA Flash Player and did "Create Project", thus getting an .exe file (player + flash). Then, I used the "exe2swf" program to extract the .swf file from this .exe, but I got a different swf than I had originally. The file size was different:
Original flash Unyl_is_love.swf: 364 KB (373,322 bytes)
After conversion swf -> exe -> swf: 367 KB (376,002 bytes) Then I thought that the "exe2swf" program was not working correctly and used the Flash Convert 1.0 program (unregistered version), and then did the same: did Create Project, got an exe, and now using Flash Convert 1.0 I extracted the swf from the exe again. And again I got a file of 367 KB (376,002 bytes), which is 2680 bytes different from the original file. Why is that? What software should I use to correctly extract swf from exe? And I have extracted so many flashes from exe..! I have had Flash Convert 1.0 since 2004... It turns out that for many years it has been extracting flashes incorrectly. Why I noticed this: flashes that I took from the DaniMult Web Archive sometimes survived in two versions - swf and exe. I found that the regular swf versions differed in size from swf extracted from exe. It is interesting that despite the different sizes, sometimes swfchan considered them the same (and VirusTotal - different), sometimes swfchan accepted them as new flashes. So what software should I use to correctly extract swf from exe? help.swf (9.5 KiB) 640x480, Compressed (Deflate). 80 frames, 12 fps (00:07). Ver8, AS1/AS2. Network access: No. Text: Yes.
