[Swftools-common] Newbie swfcombine --cat question

[Duncan Gibb]

Hello

I have some Flash files which have been made from PowerPoint
presentations.  I want to concatenate them so that you can click through
one and carry on to the next one as if it were all one movie.  I tried
doing this:

  $ swfcombine --cat part_one.swf part_two.swf

but when I look at output.swf, you get to the end of part one, then it
goes a bit weird, then the slides from part one are shown again in
reverse order.

I've read the man page, the FAQ, the list archive, and tried the stable
release as well as Sunday's snapshot.

Am I doing it wrong?  Are the source files broken?  Do I need to create
a dummy Flash file to combine the sources into (like the old PostScript
cheat)?  Am I just thick?


Cheers
