it has internal codecs, so it doesn't matter which ones are or aren't on the machine

XBMC use FFmpeg, and FFmpeg include libavcodec - both of them part of "ffdshow" (directshow filters)

It uses the codecs, not the player.

No. ffdshow uses ffmpeg, not the opposite. XBMC does *NOT* use DirectShow. See DSPlayer for that.
