    Try VideoLan, which has it's own codecs and seems to play pretty much anything
    Read my blog here.

    x264 is either a commandline app or VfW and it doesn't include a decoder. Also with AC3 audio I am guessing that it is in an mkv container? If so then you also need an mkv splitter.

    As said ffdshow is the way to go for dshow playback. VLC tends to be out of date. Nightly builds should be ok, although I am not sure if libavcodec gets updated nightly as well.
