Does it happen with all AVI files?
AVI is only a container, and it may include lots of video and audio encodings.

Why not rip directly to MPEG? I always rip old VCR and analog camcorder tapes to MPEG. AVI generally uses lossy and yet outdated video codecs like DivX and XviD, and a double conversion will not improve those already poor VCR images.
Maybe you use a commercial bundle for beginners which produces only AVI? With which software are you making your rips? Can you send a small sample?
