I have some files labeled ".AVI" note the caps.  Turns out these are
Divx files.  I haven't gotten them to play yet, but when I carefully
followed the SF instructions, and got the video decoders installed
properly I got the error message telling me that these are DivX files.
So now I just need to get the right ceral box with the magic DivX
decoder ring and I should be all set.
