Embedding SWF files into posts ?

If you are uploading the swf files as post attachments then you can use a template modification:

Admin CP -> Appearance -> Templates -> attached_files

You can use a condition to check the file extension, like this:

Code:
					<xen:if is="{$attachment.extension} == 'swf'">
						EMBED CODE
					<xen:else />
						REGULAR ATTACHMENTS
					</xen:if>

You will need some swf embed code. Here is one resource I found which provides both javascript and plugin solutions:

http://hubpages.com/hub/Embed-SWF-FLV-MP4-Flash-Video

Here is complete template code that uses the plugin solution:

Code:
<xen:require css="attached_files.css" />

<div class="attachedFiles secondaryContent">
	<h4 class="attachedFilesHeader">{xen:phrase attached_files}:</h4>
	<ul class="attachmentList">
		<xen:foreach loop="$post.attachments" value="$attachment">
			<li class="attachment{xen:if {$attachment.thumbnailUrl}, ' image'}" title="{$attachment.filename}">
				<div class="boxModelFixer primaryContent">
					<xen:if is="{$attachment.extension} == 'swf'">
						<object id="whatever" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="400" height="300" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,115,0">
							<param name="src" value="{xen:link attachments, $attachment}"/>
							<param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"/>
							<param name="quality" value="best"/>
							<embed name="whatever" src="{xen:link attachments, $attachment}" width="400" height="300" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" quality="best" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"></embed>
						</object>
					<xen:else />
						<div class="thumbnail">
							<a href="{xen:link attachments, $attachment}" target="_blank">
								<img src="{xen:if $attachment.thumbnailUrl, $attachment.thumbnailUrl, '@imagePath/xenforo/widgets/page.png'}" alt="{$attachment.filename}" />
							</a>
						</div>
					
						<div class="attachmentInfo pairsJustified">
							<h6 class="filename"><a href="{xen:link attachments, $attachment}" target="_blank">{$attachment.filename}</a></h6>
							<dl><dt>{xen:phrase file_size}:</dt> <dd>{xen:number $attachment.file_size, size}</dd></dl>
							<dl><dt>{xen:phrase views}:</dt> <dd>{xen:number $attachment.view_count}</dd></dl>
						</div>
					</xen:if>
				</div>
			</li>
		</xen:foreach>
	</ul>
</div>

<xen:comment><xen:require css="xenforo.css" /></xen:comment>

Hey that's great but that is for swf files only. Where on that page did you get this code?

I mainly just need it for mp4 and mov files.
