Convert SWF files to QuickTime movies using Classic

Recent versions of QuickTime haven't been able to open SWF files. For days, I've been searching for a way to convert a SWF animation to a QuickTime movie without having to downgrade QuickTime. Then I remembered -- I already have an old version of QuickTime on my system in Classic! Sure enough, the Classic version of QuickTime both opened the SWF and converted it into a QuickTime movie.

You'll need to have Quicktime Pro in Classic to make it work, and newer versions of Flash are probably not compatible with the older version of QuickTime.
