Provide fall-back alternatives. Use a different container. Use a
different browser. Move it!

Your browser is not a full operating system. Your OS and your browser use
a differenet system to load multimedia files (a browser uses plugins to
call the players that are installed in your system).

Mmm, maybe is that you had the wrong expectations.

You look at the "about:plugins" to know what library is in charge of
managing multimedia files. If you install a different plugin to handle
thsese files, you look here to check it has been properly installed and
detected by your browser.

With a MS video container file (.avi)? Use a different one and your life
will be -by far- better.

for you :-)
