Can you upload SWF to YouTube?
When you have a SWF video on your Mac you will notice that with several attempts to upload it to YouTube, it can’t be uploaded. YouTube is a great social sharing site that allows video upload but does not support videos in SWF format. Therefore, you will have to convert the SWF video to formats like MOV, MP4, AVI and MKV that are supported by YouTube. To convert your videos, we recommend that you use third party. An appropriate tool is UniConverter.
