Certainly. The "-s" option from 0.4.4 resamples the image to a given
size before encoding it.
What you need seems to be a simple SWF matrix transform on the
image SWF character.

Try removing the "-m" option. -m (--merge) doesn't really make any sense
in what you are doing there.

You can, however, also do an intermediate step:

    /usr/local/bin/swfcombine -d -s 50 size1.swf -o size2.swf

and then process size2.swf as above. ("50" means scale to 50%- I assume
that's what you're trying to achieve with the "-s 2" above. jpeg2swf
takes denominators as argument to "-s", however swfcombine takes
percentages, so "50" means scale to half width, half height)
