Thanks for reporting back that it worked for you. I didn't think it would make a difference when I first found it out.
But to my amazement it does work. It mainly works for AVIs from digital camera's that are compressed with the motion
jpeg codec compressor.

Did the AVI come from a video or digital camera? If so, can you tell us the
brand and model? Thanks.
