This is no satisfying amount of information. Never trust in a filename extension, there is always a chance that it has been renamed for the craziest reasons (e.g. people don't know how to assign a media player to an unassigned but correct extension so that it will start playing after a double-click in the Explorer).

To help us helping you, do an analysis of this source file using MediaInfo, and post the result in "Text" format in a CODE block (or in a pastebin service).

If you are sure that it is an AVI because you made it, you may also know which codec was used; 115 GB is really huge, so it possibly contains completely uncompressed video. It would be a pity to have uncompressed RGB video saved, what a waste of space, and furthermore it is not the optimal color space as source for modern video codecs. This would also explain why the Indexer takes aged to build an index: It will write keyframe data for really every frame, because completely uncompressed video consists of keyframes everywhere. Such a video is hard to handle by L-SMASH Source. In this case only, AviSource is to be preferred.
