No, not as far as I know. There's probably some sparse programs to hash together a flash video to make a screencast or something, but I doubt there's anything good

i believe that adobe opensourced their actionscript code to mozilla (to use in their javascript engine as actionscript is just basically javascript) and they also open sourced a tool for users to code their own drivers to make flash work with their own audio api other then ALSA
