In that case, wouldn't a build compiled against ffmpeg head (or libav I guess) be little to no work, but simply not fit for general consumption due to stability concerns? Or are there substantial (Windows specific) modifications to ffmpeg required?
1) your assumption is wrong...
2) Be little to no work? you have to be kidding right ? I suggest you subscribe to the ffmpeg/libav mailing lists to see what goes on.
if you are going to die if you don't get hi10, then run xbmc with an external player of your choosing and be done with it.
