You should use pdf2swf. Better quality.
(Then again, you probably don't need to zoom your slides, so it might
 not make much difference)

I would use an swfc script. I think it's much simpler, and you won't
have to do all those "find out ID using swfdump, replace that ID using
swfcombine" workarounds. 
If you've got enough time, you may even want to browse a few
ActionScript tutorials, so you can do most of the animation logic using
Flash's action engine.

Concerning example scripts, I used to have a keyboard_viewer.sc file
here somewhere, but right now can't find it. (I'll keep digging)
Maybe Laurent's moviecontrol script
    http://technoargia.free.fr/swftools/examples/moviecontrol/moviecontrol.html
can help you get started in the meantime?
