Thanks tiben20 for the great work.
I am also having the same issue. I did download the XBMCSetup-20110430-caa7295-dx_video.exe, latest ffdshow tryout and installed them in my machine. I made MPC-HC to work with ffdshow, but when I run the XBMC it still uses the internal codec. The internal codec couldn't handle mpeg2 movies and m2ts movies properly (toomuch video artifacts). The same videos plays very well in MPC. I would really appreciate any help in making the ffdshow to work with XBMC (any config file to tinker with?? Changing ffdshow "DirectShow Control" Merit higher didn't fix it).
ENV: Windows 7 64bit
ffdshow 64bit
Here is the error message I see in the log file.

Let's try from another side. I've downloaded and installed the following file: XBMCSetup-20110430-caa7295-dx_video.exe. Is that correct one?
