AVI player

[spenzdad]

I have some .avi files im trying to play. Neither Windows Media Player or
Realplayer will play the video but they do play the audio. Is there a
player that will work with avi files you would recommend or are there
downloads to make WMP player work?

any help appreciated

thank you

You don't need a new media player, only a codec. Install ffdshow and WMP
will likely have no problem playing that avi file:

Let me know,
