My computer won't play a certain video file

NB: Posting this in here as I can't seem to post a topic in Problem Solving

Right; I am a member of a small community called The Warzone 2100 Resurrection Project. It is for a team of people who continue to mod and develop the RTS Warzone 2100 since it became Open Source.

Now I volunteered to take a look at the games FMV Scenes to see how they can improve them. Getting them improved is not easy since the original files were lost when they game became open source, so on the latest version released they are of lower quality than the rest of the game. I was able to secured a download of the file off one of the members of which I have quited bellow and includes the download link:

Get http://download.gna.org/warzone/vide...s_avi.tar.lzma (AVIs made from the RPLs with rpl2avi). Should play in any player.
My problem is that i have downloaded but an unable to play the files in anything I have, iTunes never brought it up, Windows Media Player claimed it either couldn't support it or the codec used to compress it. Quicktime didn't recognize it. VLC plays it without any audio or video This may be due to the type of file but I need to be able to take a look at these scenes.

Can anyone recommend something to open this damm thing and get it playing?
