Shockwave Flash, later renamed Small Web Format (SWF), is the file type Adobe Flash used to deliver animations, interactive banners, browser games, and video across the web. An SWF stores vector artwork, timelines, embedded media, and ActionScript code in a compact package that streamed well over slow connections. Adobe ended support for Flash Player on 31 December 2020, and every major browser has since removed it, so SWF is now a legacy format.
Ruffle is the modern route: it is a Flash emulator that runs SWF content as a desktop application or browser extension, without Flash Player itself.
Standalone players such as SWF File Player also work on Windows, and VLC media player can play simple SWF files that contain only video. For animations you want to keep long-term, converting them to a standard video format with our SWF to MP4 tool is the most reliable way to preserve them.

Ogg Vorbis (OGV) is a free, open-source, unpatented multimedia container format and codec. It is part of the Ogg family of formats and codecs, which the non-profit Xiph.Org Foundation developed to compete with patented codecs. OGV can time-division multiplex (TDM) audio, video, text (subtitles), and metadata. It supports streaming, as well as lossy and lossless compression. However, it does not support menus.
VLC media player is the best choice for opening OGV files. Other good choices are Winamp for on Microsoft Windows OS, and Elmedia on Mac OS X.
It is possible for OGV to play in Windows Media Player and DirectShow-based players, but only with the use of a DirectShow filter. On the other hand, if the player is not based on DirectShow, then the filter is not necessary.
