There is no stock MPEG-2 decoder on a Windows box.  It's typically provided
by DVD player software, such as PowerDVD or WinDVD.  Which one you're using
could make a difference.  (I usually have PowerDVD installed and haven't run
into trouble.)

There are also a couple of MPEG-2 decoders built into ffmpeg, but IME they
tend to be much more processor-hungry than PowerDVD.  They're not enabled by
default.
