Would you all please have a look into the logfile to see if you have any entry about a missing pthread library?
According to some documents the pthreadGC.dll is needed in order to use pthreads for windows but I can't found the entry in my logfile.
I'll provide the next dlls with win32 threads which are supposed to be slightly slower but doesn't need any extra library.

Yes there is such an entry in my xbmc.log. Here's what it looks like:

funny thats not in my log. The next ffmpeg dlls are compiled with win32 threads.
