Avifile-player is GPL'd, and is in the main distribution. As for
needing non-libre codecs, the description at

 http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/avifile-player.html

says aviplay is a "player for various .avi and .asf files with
the help of Win32 dlls' You will need windows DLL codecs for
good usage of this program. See: http://divx.euro.ru"
