I'm confused as to what role ffdshow plays in MP. In ffdshow's codec settings I can nominate the video decoder for given formats, eg:

h264, x264, xvid -> libavcodec
mpeg2 -> libmeg2

Are these used or ignored by MP in its codec configuration of Movie Player and DVD Codec?

I see that in my MP that ffdshow appears as a codec in the Audio dropdown list, but not in the Video. Anyone know why?

Is there an FAQ on this stuff, including splitters? I could help write one if need be.
