VLC is not the best for utilizing resources. That would be Media Player Classic with the proper codex. It play perfectly on mine i3 with a 6670 both in MPC and XBMC

The dropped frame count is only when I start the file, Once the video begins, the dropped frame count is 26 and it ends at 26. However, if I start skipping around in the video, then the dropped frame count increases.
That's completely normal. Even the Madvr and reclock proponents don't count dropped frames at the beginning or after skipping.

Don't know why; just confirming your observation.

If I'm not mistaken, you have AMD HD6570 discrete GPU. Have you done all the simple things as shown below.....
1. Update AMD latest driver from here- AMD Driver Autodetect
2. You can start off by disable everything in CCC Video/Quality other than "Enforce Smooth Video Playback" as shown in my screen shot below
3. Enable DXVA2 and select DXVA as Render method and disable everything else in XBMC system/video/playback
4. Enable "Use fullscreen window rather than true fullscreen" in XBMC system/system/vdeo output
