I have animated SVG using SMIL. However I would need to export to other formats.

Do you know any program that would convert animated SVG to SWF, GIF, AVI (or any other video format)?

Answer 1

This conversion is easy with ffmpeg in two steps.

Step 1: Generate a movie from your screen.

1. Open your animated SVG in Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer.

2. Use this command in a terminal:

   ffmpeg -s 1440x640 -r 25 -f x11grab -i :0.0 -b 6000k out.avi
   

   With:

   • -s specify the format of your animation (here 1440x640 px).
   • -r the frames per seconds (Here 25).
   • -f the selection of your screen.
   • -b the quality (6000k is good quality).
   • out.avi name and format of the file.

3. Now watch your animation in full screen mode (F11). If your animation is looped it's better.

4. Stop the recording (Ctrl + C)

Step 2: Save only the interesting part

Use this command in a terminal:

ffmpeg -i out.avi -b 6000k -r 25 -t "00:00:10" -ss "00:00:09" "final.avi"

With:

• -i the file to cut.
• -b the quality.
• -r the frame rate.
• -t the duration of recording (Here 10s).
• -ss the recording start (Here at 9s).
• final.avi the output fil.

Now you have an .avi file
