If you have a mac, I'd recommend downloading VLC to play your videos with:
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
not only does it play most quicktime and windows based formats, but it also opens DVD and VCD files.
otherwise, just do a google search for "mac video codec" and you can find a whole bunch of sources for both the popular, and obscure components, for mac.
If you have a slower mac (G3, 1ghz or less) I would recommend converting AVI files to quicktime MOV files using Divx Doctor

hope this helps ^_^
