Realone player is good although media player should play avi's also, what version are you using?

You should ger Div-X. It has a free Div-X player that plays all AVI files.

Div-X files are avi files but require a Div-X plugin that does not come with WMP. You would need to find a 3rd party pluggin. I got mine from divx.ctw.cc but this site no longer exist.

Once you have the plugin installed, then it should work fine, otherwise it is not a divx file.

There are a few other encodings of avi that use proprietary plugins (used for copy protection) that you must get from the company that created the avi file.
