First off, a bit of reading is in order:

The posting guidelines for the forum (which you agreed to follow when signing up)

http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WhyRockbox which is posted on the front page will give you a nice rundown.

Also, the manual will help you out with those "how to" questions.

There is no such thing as a ".AVI format".  AVI is just a container and isn't really indicative of the video format inside.  you cna see the PluginMpegplayer wiki page for more info and how to format the video properly.

... and another violation of the forum guidelines. PLEASE read them (as well as website and FAQ) FIRST.

Just a little bonus info for you: It is true that avi is just a container, as for the format what you most likely have is divx or xvid.
