Can you find out what codec the video uses? Feed the file into gspot and tell us what the fourcc is.

P.S: In many webcams the default codec by choice is Indeo 5 (fourcc=IV50). If that’s what it turns out to be tell your friend to download the Indeo Package from here

(either file on that page should work)
