check when u install AVIFILE that it finds all the packages u installed previously (QT SDL, .etc) make sure by reading the configure file (just open it in any editor) that you have the software in the correct location if not read in the beginning about how you can tell it where everything is located. example
./configure --with-qt-libs=/usr/local/qt-2.2/lib --with-qt=/usr/local/qt-2.2
I had to tell the configure file where just about all the previously installed packages were.
when your compiling make sure it can find all the files/packages it does if not just run
rm config.cache
to remove the cached info about where the configure file THINKS your software is located. Then do a ./configure again w/ the revised paths.
it takes time but from my experience avifile plays my avis, asfs better in RH than in windows.
NB
