This is a codec problem. See Tweakers Page - Video Codecs

Guys finally found the problem download a h.264 converter and converted the video to format h.264 thats the solution

Garbage solution. Unacceptable, scrubby, peasant workaround.

What is inside your AVI wrapper?

Codec & Format information, with 2 links inside to read -read both links in reply #1 http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1270588

Report back with the codec details of your file, use the programs below... A screen shot works well to SHOW people what you are doing

Also, are you starting your project with the NEW ITEM process as discussed on page 5 at the link below?
