Its my mates dvd player so its not here to test, Im just confused how a avi file can be different than another.
An AVI file is purely a container file that has encoded within it a video and an audio stream, the encoding of the video stream could be anything from mpeg4, xvid, divx and a few other encodings and the audio could be anything from VBR/CBR MP3, PCM, AC3 or a few other formats as well.

Think of it like a DOC file done in word 2003, the encoding within the file might be such that word'97 can;t open it even though it's still a DOC file.
