This is not the answer you were hoping for, the sample plays fine for me... trunk and Dharma beta2 on Win 7.
ffmpeg says "Video: mpeg2video, Audio: ac3"
Is that short piece mis-detected on your system?

Yes, plays just fine on mine too. Guess I should have checked it before uploading. Strange though, that bit plays fine, but the whole movie won't.

Although I havent sectioned off a chunk like youve done I find that if i take an example of a film that wont work ("300" say) and run it through handbrake using h264 encoding it plays fine! so this must mean all the information is in the mpg just xbmc reads it as some crazy 5GB music CD.
Maybe when you made your sample it changed the fabric of it enough that xbmc sees it differently.

That's what I've been doing as well, encoding everything into h.264. Plays fine after that, and much smaller size.

Yes, prepare a sample that shows the problem.
