OS 10.4 - Quicktime not playing sound...

Hey I have a large .avi file I'm trying to play, and when I open it, quicktime says its missing some necessary components to play the file. I can continue on and play it and it looks fine, just with no sound.

If I click the link to the components page, it just takes me to a list of upgrades on the quicktime website. Upgrading quicktime doesnt work, as I need 10.5 to get the newest version.

Any tips?

great! that worked perfectly.

now my next question is how to burn that file to a dvd. the sound works when I play it on my computer, because I have perian, but how do I burn with sound?
