AviSynth: Can't locate a decompressor for DV-fourCC

[PROBLEM]
When trying to open a DV-avi with AviSynth, I got the errormessage:
AVISource: couldn't locate a decompressor for fourcc DVSD
The DV-avi itself can be played back without problems, and when consulting GSpot, it lists a suitable codec and renders flawlessly


[SOLUTION]
I've told ffdshow to take care of decompressing DV (verify this change with GSpot).
Now it works.

Although this ain't a real explanation for why it didn't work in the first place, but it helps.
