Currently, YouTube does not formally recognize .SWF files for uploading.
However, YouTube will still try and process the video with the following warning message:

"We did not recognize the video format for this file, but we will go ahead and try processing it anyway. See this article on recommended formats for more information." http://support.google.com/youtube/bin/answer.py?hl...

The file formats that YouTube officially accepts are as follows:
•.WebM files - Vp8 video codec and Vorbis Audio codecs
•.MPEG4, 3GPP and MOV files - Typically supporting h264, mpeg4 video codecs, and AAC audio codec
•.AVI - Many cameras output this format - typically the video codec is MJPEG and audio is PCM
•.MPEGPS - Typically supporting MPEG2 video codec and MP2 audio
•.WMV
•.FLV - Adobe-FLV1 video codec, MP3 audio
