.XviD is an extension sometimes used for raw XviD streams (usually .m4v is used). I am not aware of any dshow parser for raw MPEG-4 part 2 streams.

Sounds like you are talking about an AVI though in which case it probably uses AC3 audio and you are missing an AC3 decoder. If so, then installing AC3Filter or FFDShow would fix it.

Im not sure what the problem would be but you might try installing
the K-Lite codec Pack 2.63 Full and then try using your media player. Its got everything and anything in it.

Could be that particular FFDShow build was compiled with MSVC7/8 and you are missing msvcr*.dll which would be a dependancy so the filter failed to register. Could be something else like it is a gcc build which would require SSE which your CPU might not support (old athlon, etc.).

I really wouldn't recommend installing codec packs.
