You can supply a direct link or embed it, here's the basic code for embedding it:

 <object id="MediaPlayer" classid="clsid:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=6,4,7,1112" type="application/x-mplayer2" width="XXX" height="XXX">
<param name="autostart" value="true" />
<param name="src" value="XXX.wmv" /> 
<param name="showstatusBar" value="true" />
<embed width="XXX" height="XXX" showstatusbar="true" src="XXXXXXX.wmv" autostart="true" type="application/x-mplayer2">
</embed>
</object>

Not sure if that will work with a AVI becasue I never tested it. Be aware that if it's a divx AVI the user needs a divx compatible codec instsalled to playe it. As suggeted convert it to a WMV .
