Hello, people!

The title says it all. I need to convert a SWF file to an animated GIF.
I tried exporting it directly from Flash but symbols don't play (They stay at the first frame) and exporting the SWF to a Fla doesn't work neither.

I tried to look for a software but none of them seems to work (they all leave a watermark/have other problems)

Anyone knows an online converter? or a free software for this?

if you use graphic symbols instead of movie clips you won't have this problem.
