xanim works, but it uses very old codecs as it comes in the
installation package. You need to recompile it to get 
a decent codec for modern modern avi's and sound support.

Even if you recompile it yourself, the latest supported
codec is Intel's 3.2, but most new avi's coming out
are codec 4 and 5.

So you still may not be able to play alot of avi's out there,
unless you convert them back to an older codec first.
