Just the usual good freebies like Squared 5 MPEG Streamclip, Virtual Dub and QuickTime Pro.
I'd start with MPEG Streamclip cuz that baby can open a wide number of programs. http://www.squared5.com Next I'd try QuickTime Pro to see if it would accept the .avi files. http://www.virtualdub.org can do it as well but MPEG Streamclip gives you a lot of import/export options.

Some will not open at all while others open but have flickering and static. I don't know how it happened; it could be that they were damaged when I copied them onto my hard drive but that really doesn't matter at this point. I've already tried to see if I could recover them from the memory card but I had already overwritten them. > > Does anyone know of a tool that I can use that will repair (or salvage whatever can be salvaged from) the videos? I did a Google search but don't really want to install some random program. I'd rather get recommendations first.
