xine and Kaffeine will not play AVI file

Hi,

I followed the instructions in
http://waxborg.servepics.com/English...imedia.en.html
as instructed in this forum to install xine and Kaffeine following my
earlier posting that SUSE cannot play DVDs and now my xine and Kaffeine can
play DVDs.

The problem I encounter now with the versions I installed is that they will
not play an AVI file.
When I try playing an AVI file with xine, I get the message
"There is no demuxer plugin available to handle ****
Usually this means that the file format was not recognized."
I get a similar missing demuxer message from Kaffeine.

Am I missing anything?

Thank you.

Did you also install divx4linux and xvid?

I apologize for the posting. The file was bad and so I could not play it.
Now I have managed to play a good file. I should have checked properly
before posting the query.
