It can play DVDs natively without ffmpeg, everything else is done using
the win32 codec dlls, which are slow as hell compared to the ffmpeg
native decoders (try watching a quicktime trailer on an athlon 600 using
the dlls, impossible).
MPlayer still can do all that without ffmpeg installed as it includes
its own (older) version of ffmpeg and probably uses that.
