I can't get to seem to get the avi working. It says I need a
cvid decompressor, does anyone know of a program that runs this? I have
had no luck at all on all of the media players I have (Real Player,
Windows Media Player, etc.)

Hmm. I was afraid of this. There's a particular DLL which you (and I here at
work) need to be able to do this decompression, and unfortunately I have no
idea which DLL it is. I've been looking at all the different video compressors
I have and wondering which ones are the most widespread and available, as well
as which one does the best job at compressing.

Looking under Control Panels -> Multimedia -> Advanced -> Video Compression
Codecs should give you a list of available decompression methods you have
installed. Currently here at work, I only have Intel Indeo(R) Interactive
32-bit Driver [IV41], but I'm sure at home I have many more. I'm sure when I
assembled these it defaulted to something else. If you tell me what compressor
drivers you have, maybe I can get an idea of what's the most popular driver and
redo these. (I aim to please!)
