the avi file, is whats known as a container - it has no structure to determine what actual codec is used - so some or your files might be divx, mg4, h.264 and the audio split between mp3, acc etc.
your only chance is to download the Extra-Decoders-Support package, I think its in Extras-testing

Right, I have put several .avi files onto my N900, as it can play them, yet some of the files says 'video codec not supported' or 'audio codec not supported', if they are all .avi how does that work?

does the job.
but mhm... the system doesn't seem to benefit from this codec-pack... mplayer has its own codecs and plays the movies fine...
the default media-player still says "format not supported" :/
maybe there is a little tweak ^^

stop acting silly. all the apps that should be shown in app manager are shown. trust me. what are you going to do for example with plain library and zero software that utilizes a library?

I know all this, I'm not completely stupid, I've only had it a couple of days, not much on there anyways. I'd rather take the risk and it works than not and get no solution.

Another thing, it won't play certain .mp3 files.. Which is stupid, these files played on my 5610 xpress music, which is like 2 years old.

maybe like this
blah blah blah try extra-devel to solve it
into
blah blah blah try [extra-devel] to solve it
and have a mouse over warning with the usual disclaimers
