Create a JPG from the first frame of a SWF using PHP?

[Ciaran]

Hi Is this possible? I have several flash games on my site and I would
like to be able to show an automatically created icon next to them in
the games menu.
Thanks
Ciarán

Try using ffmpeg-php (http://ffmpeg-php.sourceforge.net) ..

Thanks Thiago but I checked it out and it seems that ffmpeg only
supports FLV files. Is there anything out there that can capture the
first frame of a SWF?

Cheers,

Hi Ciarán,

If your requirement is to display automatic images for each SWF then
do one thing create images for each SWF and save the path in the
database with other information of SWF. and display the image by
querying the path of image from database.

And if you want to catch the first frame of SWF then you have to use
some SWF functions http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.swf.php
(Just to alert you I have never use SWF function in PHP)
