Hello:
First Off, Whenever you have changed something for rendering the thumbs you might have to use "rebuild thumbs" option. under view. If you missed it.
I use the codecs route because any program that doesn't have them built in, uses direct-show api and needs them installed manually anyways. Once installed any program using direct-show api can share the same codec set. You may need to restart your pc for this also. Also needed if you use QTtabbar for live preview.
The ffmpeg route is less complex, but only works for xnviewmp. Answer, Yes you should only need to extract it inside the plugins folder. Remember to try rebuild thumbs.
I really don't like linking to .exe's because many sites are now putting wrappers around .exe's to force install their own crap.
Here's were I got mine from and was fine when I used them. Keep in mind this was years ago. http://www.mediaplayercodecpack.com/
K-lite should be a simple google search ( It's Highly popular) and I'm sure you can determine a trusted site.
Try these options and if you still have problems we can dig deeper.
Hope this helps
