"Hello All,
I am having trouble playing AVI type files. I tried at least a few AVI type players from cnet and they didn't work for most AVI type files. Any suggestions? "deleted". "
In response to that, I can actually help since I had the very same problem! You need to do TWO things.
1. Completely delete the program you use then reinstall the latest upgrade for it. That's even if it's the same version.
2. Download: ACE Mega Codecs Pack Dashboard and install. This will put the extra codes you need in all of your video viewing files. Go here:

It worked for me, hope it works for you, too!
