I have installed a ez 4.1.0 alpha 1 and upgraded to alpha 2 and the problem for SWF file and flash player 10 it's not resolved, I also try the bug on ez 4.0.1 and it's bugged but new version ez 4.0.2 works fine.

My solution for 4.1:
remove from mime.ini the lines under [swf] block

Types[]=image/vnd.rn-realflash
Types[]=application/x-shockwave-flash2-preview

If you want to display .swf files on Firefox 3 (Mac and Windows), IE7 and Safari you must leave only

Types[]=application/x-shockwave-flash

Otherwise, when you create a flash object, it saves it with the mime-type image/vnd.rn-realflash, which works only with Opera but not with other browsers (I have tested all the most recent versions and plugins).

The reason why flash files are correctly displayed in eZ Publish 4.0.2 is that this version has not the mime.ini file, but the mime-types are directly defined in lib/ezutils/classes/ezmimetype.php
Here the type was defined as rf:

array( 'rf', 'image/vnd.rn-realflash' ),

Hope this helps.
