Convert ARF to SWF

Understanding ARF and SWF file formats

ARF (Advanced Recording File) is a file format used by WebEx to store recorded online meetings. These files contain video, audio, and other data from the meeting, such as participant lists and chat messages. ARF files are typically used for playback and sharing of WebEx sessions.

SWF (Small Web Format or Shockwave Flash) is a file format used for multimedia, vector graphics, and ActionScript. SWF files are commonly used for creating animations, games, and interactive content for the web. They are designed to be small and efficient, making them ideal for online use.

How to convert ARF to SWF

Converting an ARF file to an SWF file involves a few steps, as there is no direct conversion tool available. You will first need to convert the ARF file to a more common video format, such as MP4, and then convert that file to SWF.
