This is a complete shot in the dark, but I'm guessing ffdshow is causing a conflict. Can you play back the Kevin Caldwell - Battle Athletes - Believe.mpg video correctly in WMP directly, without AviSynth? If it does (and even if it doesn't), check your Windows System Tray (lower right corner, next to the clock). There is probably at least one "FF" icon there, assuming you did the default AMVapp install.
Now, try disabling ffdshow's support for MPEG1 videos (which Believe.mpg is), and everything else that you DON'T want ffdshow to handle. I suggest disabling support for MPEG1, MPEG2 (unless you don't have any DVD playback software already installed), DivX, XviD, and pretty much everything else except things that you don't already have another decoder for, like H.264. You can do this in ffdshow's Video decoder configuration located in your Start menu. You probably also want to do the same for ffdshow's VFW codec configuration and Audio decoder configuration (for stuff like MP3, AAC, etc.).
Having trouble playing back videos? I recommend:
