Didn't mean to steal bug... feel free to take it back if your already working on
a solution...

If not I'll give it a look this weekend :)

Well, 4Front Tech. has yet to release a version of avi-xmms plugin which will
compile against avifile-0.6 series.  However, I have managed to locate a patch
to XMMS which allows it to play avi movies against the newer avifile libraries.
 Until 4Front releases a new version of avi-xmms plugin, this will have to do,
unfortunately.  Please unmerge win32codecs, avifile (all versions) avi-xmms and
xmms.  Then remerge xmms and you should have avi support built in.  It is the
Plover avi input.

Please let me know how you feel about this.
