Older AVI not playing

I have a number of short AVI clips that were taken with my digital camera, a circa-2003 Canon Powershot G2. They play fine on my PC in WMP or whatever, but they will not play in Sage and they do not seem to want to convert either. However, a "still" does show up in the thumbnail window, so obviously Sage is seeing something.

When I click "play", I get the scrollbar briefly on a blank screen, but no video.

Any tricks I can use to get them to play?

It's possible that you are missing the right codec. An AVI is a container for other formats, so you need to run a tool like GSpot, that will help identify the codecs needed for it.
