I have no idea how to use it, clicking on the extension button provides no help, nothing. I'd like to extract images from .swf, I don't know if this tool could help me to achieve that.

This extension is literally the only one of its kind (I've tried searching, no luck) and it runs, ok. The problem is the flash file loads, plays for around 2-3 seconds and either buffers for a while or completely stops. specifically, i'm trying to play the individual .swf files from "the Best 404 Page" heres an example link: http://thebest404pageeverredux.com/swf/Love_The_Way_You_Move.swf when I go to that link, the .swf will load in, play a little, and then just stop or buffer for god knows how long. Can this please be fixed? Edit: Nevermind, I had to reload a few times for it to actually load in properly. Updated how many stars I gave it, but it shouldn't just stop and force me to reload 2-3 times for it to play the entire thing.. Edit 2: Ok, it appears this extension isn't broken at all. Flash files in general just seem to not want to play.. :/

Works as expected! Finally I can watch SWF files directly in Chrome again :) Note: It does not work for local files.

Doesn't work. Problem continues.

It could be even better if the dimension of the flash would adapt to fill all the size of the page.

Doesn't work for local or remote flash files. I wrote my own embed page (generator) and that also failed for local, but worked for remote. For anyone struggling, make a local .html with "<object data='...'></object>" in it (add your own width/height/etc.) If that doesn't work, add whitelists for file:///, localhost, etc. - YMMV.

Works perfectly on Vivaldi using Chrome/65.0.3325 Thank you!

Doesn't work for opening local swf files. Still downloads them instead of displaying.

Works perfect, make sure you don't use it with local file (file:///).
Hitechcomputergeek
Only works for .swf files on the Web, not for local .swf files which I've downloaded.
Nadson Jean
mt bom, esse foi o único plugin que funcionou pra abrir sites com SWF , alem de ter instalado o adobe flash, não funcionou em nada pq o chrome é um lixo, então esse plug maravilhoso me salvou !!! mt mt bom !!!

Does exactly what it says. Let you open the swf files in new tab instead of downloading them.
William Yuan
This works perfectly
Feesh Unofficial
If you use a chromebook like me, the non-embedded swf files would just be downloaded and couldn't be played. With this extension it opens the non-embedded swf files instantly on a new tab. (I have no experience with this extension on any other device, only on Toshiba ChromeBook)

Still prompts download. Doesn't work.

Doesn't work. Flash files are still prompted to download instead of opening.
