Did you read this section from the FAQ? --> Video playback issues <-- click-n-read

Pay close attention to this section...

In most cases, installing the latest SSE version of ffdshow will provide system-wide support for video formats such as DivX, XviD, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.263, AVC/H.264, etc.

Installing ffdshow usually resolves most problems with codec-related video issues, but read everything linked to / suggested there.
