Hi all,

I am a fan of the DC animated cartoons (Batman, JLA, etc.) and would like to eventully collect it all on dvd.
There was a Flash/Shockwave based cartoon that the WB had on its website called "Gotham Girls". (For those interested, the cartoon featured Poison Ivy, Catwoman, Harley... The cartoons were 2-3 minutes long, and there were 3 "seasons", each with 10 episodes. They're kind of fun and are considered DCAU canon by purists... All of the cartoon download links can be found on the "Gotham Girls" wikipedia page...)

Anyway, I would really like to archive these webisodes onto dvd. However, my efforts to convert them have been thwarted everytime.
On my mac, I've tried just exporting them from quicktime, since they play in quicktime, but the video quality is bad and it won't export audio.
On a PC, I've tried 'swftoavi', Magic SWFtoAVI' and a few others. Nothing is working perfectly. Either the audio/video is out of sync, or the quality is bad, or something else.

I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions on converting these files.
They are .swf files, flash/shockwave. All have video and audio.
One thing to note, which could be a problem, is that some of them are interactive files where normally when watching them, one would click on certain parts of the screen.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for your time!!

You could try one of those programs for screen capture/recording to AVI (e.g. Camtasia?)

I’m thinking they might have figured it out sometime in the last 11 years.
