Default DV-AVI plays with poor detail and wrong colours

Hi,

I recently had a Standard 8 cine film transferred onto miniDV tape and
from there into my computer using the copy of Windows Movie Maker that
came with my computer. I used the Digital Device format (DV-AVI)

Subsequently, when I tried using Media Player v11 or RealPlayer v10.5
to view the avi file, the quality was very poor with little detail and
lots of red and green colour in all the wrong places.

I then re-opened Windows Movie Maker and imported the file and
selected Play. The video was shown with all the poor detail and the
strange colours I described before, BUT when I dragged the file to
Movie Maker's Storyboard and clicked Play, the video played as it
should. Also, Winamp v5.35 plays the video correctly.

What on earth is going on?

Can you help me understand what is happening and why?

Many thanks!
