Run DirectShow Filter Manager, and set the merit to "00200000" for all codecs
that start "Nero".

It's not a problem with Vista, but with the Nero MSI package. When a minimal
install is done, it part installs the codecs, which causes the errors you're
seeing when trying to thumbnail DivX video clips - as it didn't install the
codec!

Ahead need to fix the MSI.
