[vlc] no suitable decoder module for fourcc `DIVX' (ffmpeg not linked?)

Dear List,

I just downloaded the vlc-0.8.0-test2 package and compile it under
windows platform (using those dsp files under msvc subdirectory).
vlc.exe plays fine on most video files but failed under DIVX encoded
file. (The same file plays fine under the precompiled windows binary).
So I suspect I didn't link in the ffmpeg library. However I couldn't
find the libffmpeg_plugin.dll and only a static library there. Can
anyone tell me how to link the libffmpeg.lib into the windows vlc.exe
environment? Thanks!

P.S. The following is the verbose debug dump for my vlc.exe
