If you are talking about small(ish) files, the easiest thing you can do is just use an online service such as Media Convert.

It supports SWF for import and has a huge variety of output formats.

Just use Visual Hub:

Works a treat every time. Unfortunately it's not available for download from the creator anymore, but it can still be had via alternate means.

The source files for the new open source version (filmredux) are also available

Ah! I finally found something that works! VidConvert by Reggie Ashworth, creator of the similarly elegant AppDelete.
