Firebug and AMF post

Question

I have to debug a website that uses a swf to send amf posts to a flex2gateway. In Firefox's "Firebug > Net" I see the POST url and when I click on it, the Post tab shows scrambled jiberish:

The response is also scrambled:

But the headers and cookies are not scrambled:

How can I unscramble the post so that I can create a curl with the proper post values. And how can I unscramble the response?

AMF is a binary format. As such Firebug and Chrome Dev Tools don't do a very good job of being able to read them. In the past, I have used a product called ServiceCapture to 'read' AMF messages. Charles is another product that can do this.
