I've not had any luck with swf. What I do instead is convert the flash
to a Quicktime .mov or an .avi and simply add the .mov or .avi
file using: Insert|Object|Video

You can find converters via Google. On linux I use Winff to do the
conversion & that works quite well. I've also had the best luck with .mov.

================================================================
For Ubuntu linux:

sudo apt-get install ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg

Then download from a browser:

http://biggmatt.com/files/winff.032-i386.deb

That will download the winff deb file. Then in Nautilus, go to where you
downloaded the file, double-click and install using the installer. When
finished you will find WinFF in Applications|Sound & Video|WinFF

Now to run a flash in OOo Impress: open Impress, start a new
presentation (or open an existing one), and simply add the .mov or .avi
file using: Insert|Object|Video
