I've run into this quite a few times. The reason you have no sound is that you have the newer codec, and an older one was used to incode the avi. It happens a lot. THere are two things you can do.

B) Use this viewer http:// www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/5758 - It works VERY well, and I use it for most of my large avi watching.
