Description changed by jackburton:

Old description:

It seems that since some time, encoding some media into an avi file using
the media kit results in a file unplayable by mediaplayer.

I've done the following tests:
- Grabbed an avi file from here: https://file-examples.com/index.php
/sample-video-files/sample-avi-files-download/:

 MediaPlayer plays it correctly

 SMPlayer plays it correctly

- Converted that file from AVI to AVI using MediaConverter

 MediaPlayer cannot play it

 SMPlayer plays it correctly
