Merging multiple Flash MX files, and the total of frames exceeded 16000

[tom_mai78101]

I need to know how to combine multiple flash files. But there are limitations in my type of sticky situation:

1. When using the copy/paste method of combining files together, the total number of frames exceeded 16000, (Total: 17293 frames, to be exact).

2. I'm using an older version of Macromedia Flash, Flash MX.

3. I have the flash documents in the same folder.

So, can anyone tell me how to merge them altogether? Step-by-step is way awesome!!

Thanks in advance.

Export them as movies and use a movie program software , imovie , final cut , sony vegas , ect ,ect. To merge them together.

Exporting the files will get me swf files. But hardly can I find a program that merges swf files. After googling around, it either links me to a dead end, or a 404 error, or access denied place, and such...

And, when converting to avi, it loses a lot of quality, and there are no sounds...

EDIT: www.swfmerge.com is down.

EDIT 2: Finally, I found a way. From expert-exchange.com:

Hi j4jack,

Do it like this..

suppose your swf names are:

file1.swf, file2.swf, file3.swf............., file12.swf


add the following code in the last frame of first movie (file1.swf)
-----------
_root.loadMovie("file2.swf");
-------------

add the following code in the last frame of second movie (file2.swf)
-----------
_root.loadMovie("file3.swf");
-------------


add the following code in the last frame of third movie (file3.swf)
-----------
_root.loadMovie("file4.swf");
-------------

do the same till second last movie.................

add the following code in the last frame of last movie (file12.swf)
-----------
_root.loadMovie("file1.swf");// this code will load the first movie again, so this way all movies will keep playing in loop
-------------
