My hardware is Intel Core2 Quad with 4GB DDR3 memory and 2TB storage, rendering video thru Radeon HD6570 graphics card with 2GB DDR3 on board on Samsung 46" full 1080p HD primary display . My OS is 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate. Thanks. Interestingly, all my other 1080p mkv video files play flawlessly in XBMC, but this one large mkv video file (15.3GB) cannot be rendered by XBMC... the video output display consists of green color with moving blips on the left-half of the screen. And surprisingly, Splash PRO HD Player flawlessly plays the same video.

Have you considered that the file may just be a bad encode - the fact that it works in another player doesn't negate the possibility?
Some players are more robust than others - seems an awful lot of trouble to go to get 1 file to playback when all others play perfectly OK. Dig out the source and try a re-encode.

First things first, there is no right or wrong, only what suits you best, just seemed that way to me.
Can't help with the remote situation sorry - my mce remote just worked with mpc-hc (though I run the x86 version) - no special set-up. One tip though if you do get it to work is to go to options in mpc-hc and map the exit command to MEDIA_STOP (don't worry that it is also attributed to the stop command - they can happily co-exist) this will close mpc-hc and return focus to xbmc.
Haven't seen an awful lot to indicate that ATI drivers are causing problems - well not of that sort. Good luck with the remote situation.
