Are you refering to the Digital (cam)era AVI? You'll then need a DV codec. Canopus, Panasonic, MainConcept and Microsoft produce these codecs.

A full film will be closer to 25GB in DV.

So it obviously isn't DV if he downloaded it via Kaaaaaaza.

Usually 60 or 80 minutes in SP mode depending on the tape. You get an extra 50% in LP mode.
