Works fine for me (IE). Make sure you have the correct codec on your system. Possibly clear your cache as well.
I have now tested from 2 different computers IE7 both but I still can't see the video!!!!
rphMedia: what IE do you use?
OK, for some reason, I can't view them now. I'm using IE7 as well. It was a snow scene of sorts, people skiing (just so you know I wasn't fibbing).
Anyway, you shouldn't be using AVI's for web delivery anyway. You should really consider converting them to a more friendly [web] format (wmv, mov, flv...).
Something is definitely wrong with the file itself as it won't even open in the WMP as a standalone -

I do all different formats of video w/CPG, it can be done. Lose AVI though.
Edit : BTW, WMP version 11.
Thanks so far, (and you are right about the skiing) but I can see the clip withput problems localy. (using your link :-))
This issue is not solved, I still can't see my AVI files in IE, but it works fine in firefox.
I don't know if it is coppermine or a IE issue, but I will tru not using avi.
Thanks for your help so far :)
I will close it in a few days
I can see the video in IE7 and FF2.0.0.1. I'll try again tomorrow to see if I can still play that video.
Works for me as well using
- IE6.0.2800.1106
- Opera 7.54
- Firefox 2.0.0.1
- K-Meleon 1.0
(all of them on W2K prof. SP4)
The codec is 'Motion JPEG', I can play the file locally with WMP 11, but my browsers (codec plugin - I don't think it's a streaming format for starters) don't like it.
So, if you want cross-platform compatability, you'll have to use a different format, it's that simple.
Good luck !

Always stick with common codecs, like DivX and Quicktime. Never use AVI on the web - the only use for AVI is to keep videos in an uncompressed state for editing purposes.
That video still plays for me. I didn't expect any problems because I have quite a few codecs installed on my PC, but you can't expect your visitors to have nearly every available codec installed on their computer.
Thanks everyone. I have made the decision to follow your advise and not use avi format.
I have a job to convert videos ;) but it works.
Thanks.
Take a look at Super. (http://www.erightsoft.net/SUPER.html) It's free and converts pretty much any video to any other format you want.
Another recommended tool to convert videos is the Windows Media Encoder (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/forpros/encoder/default.mspx). Of course it can only convert into proprietary M$-codecs, which will lock out alternative operating systems to a certain extent, but then there are Win32 libraries for Linux available that allow wmv and similar files to be displayed on Linux boxes. Using WMV as a video format is recommended in terms of quality and file size.

You can't. Has been deliberately disabled due to abuse in the past.
