I have pretty good experience exporting to QuickTime right from Flash -
though others swear it's problematic (maybe they are doing it wrong?).
If you want to keep the vector animation, and if fullscreen is your main
problem, you can use a fullScreenRect to force the renderer to a smaller
draw area. You wouldn't get the full native resolution of the user's
monitor, but this is the same restraint as using an flv file. 720p
(1280x720) would look good - if it's really complex, you could go even
smaller.
There are other optimizations your animators could use during
production, including cacheAsBitmap, or pre-rendering certain complex
vector art.

It sounds like it's time to encode the flash animation to video.
For some of the cases, yeah. You are right in that encoding to video
would solve the issue for local playback. Give me a shout when you
find a tool that actually can do it properly.
But it is not acceptable for online distribution. I myself hate people
uploading video encodings of their vector animations. It's needlessly
big files and the quality just isn't as good as the source material.
