Well, you're correct, but how hard to implement support for those
in MPlayer, for example using Win32 codec, if no reliable native codec 
exist?
VirtualDub also doesn't support audio stream for this AVI, so I hoped
that mencoder will help to encode it to divx.
I could try to incorporate support from kino, of only someone suggested
what really should be done in AVI file handler?
IMHO, after AVI header is parsed and correct codec selected - video/audio
playback and encoding is matter of technics- correct me if I'm wrong.
