AVI files are indexed and can't be watched until the file is complete. Try updating VLC to 0.8.5

Try downloading the eMule plugin for VLC:

Be careful here as plugins are designed to work with a specific version of VLC and may cause problems if this is not strictly adhered to. VLC 0.8.5 will read a partial or a damaged index for an AVI file. This of coarse assuming that the format inside the container is supported. :)
