HPR4428: Fixing AVI Indexes

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host.

I like to download video files from the Internet, and I have faced annoying problem: Broken or missing AVI indexes. My initial search for a solution was turning up paid software, but I persisted and found a nice open source solution using our old friend ffmeg. The command to use on the command line is:

ffmpeg -i input.avi -c copy output.avi

I found this to be very quick and easy, and I got the new output file in seconds.
