Opening your file in G-Spot will show the video and audio codecs needed. The K-Lite codec pack contains it as well as every codec you will need. Just uninstall oher odecs first as they can conflict. Get the Full or Mega. The only difference is players, etc and you can choose which part of the install you wish: http://home.hccnet.nl/h.edskes/mirror.htm

I'm not not familar with any of the tools you're using and I don;t understand GSpot saying the proper codec is installed and you receiving an error saying its not. Maybe, the codec has become corrupt and needs to be reinstalled or a longshot if it's just this 1 file- run it through a program like DivFix to remove any errors. I've used it in the past with good results. It's small and free:DivX-digest.com/software/divfix.html" class="korostus" target="_blank">http://www.DivX-digest.com/software/divfix.html

I see that link didn't work. Here it is again, ensure that the option to keep the origonal file is checked; I think it is by default:http://www.divx-digest.com/software/divfix.html Still not, just google DivFix, it's available at Digital Digest.

Haven't solved the problem with avi2dvd yet, but did manage to convert my AVI using Nero vision express instead. Thanks for your help.
