I was able to convert the video from AVI to SWF however the sound seems to have been stripped out. I am running the following command
ffmpeg -i 1.avi -b:a 3000k -vcodec flv -ab 128k -ar 44100 -acodec libmp3lame -b:a 160k -ac 2 -ar 44100 output.swf
I attempted a similar conversion from MP4 to AVI and had no issues.
I am running Windows XP 32bit
EDIT
I have included ffmpeg's output following the conversion. The only difference is that I am attempting to convert a MP4 file as opposed to an AVI but the results are the same i.e. a SWF file with video but no audio
