Hi
Even though you have created an avi file, it still contains the original AVC video and AAC audio tracks.
It will play OK in VLC and SMPlayer media players (because they are very tolerant).
And these players...DivX player, Windows Media Player and Windows Media Player Classic might be too picky.

Also, as others have previously said, the AVC/AAC avi files might not play nice with TV sets etc.
