try tools like AVImedic or DivFix++ to attempt to repair corrupt avi video files

sometimes when i encounter these errors i simply convert them to some other format using Format Factory (or similar converter). most of the time it gets fixed.

^ does the problem gets fully solved ?

Nice method though

yes. most of the time. with format factory either you get a fully working file or the conversion will fail and there won't be any output. i do this for media files recovered from friend's formatted pendrive
