Here was my situation:
I downloaded the Kung Fu movie:

Using the brand new BitTorrent version:
http://www.bittorrent.com/trackerless.html
I attempted to play it using Windows Media Player Version 10 and I only got sound, no video.
So I downloaded the FFDShow version listed here:
http://tasvideos.org/CodecProblems.html
I installed it using the
default options. That's where the problem might be that results in the playback having a green screen.
Uncheck the XVID box during install!
That's what it took to fix my green screen problem.
What other boxes can be or should be unchecked?
How about the audio options?
Now that I have "fixed it", even reinstalling the codec using the XVID option, I can't reproduce the green screen effect to get a screenshot of it.. :(
At least it's "fixed".
