It looks like a Qt dev has added the required headers to MinGW: http://blog.qt.digia.com/blog/2009/07/15/phonon-and-mingw-a-story-about-true...

MinGW does link against all of the various standard Windows libraries fine, and I think its safe to say that Microsoft uses their own compiler to build the system libs.
that's all true, but unfortunately you missed the important points:
- Gem currently uses a C++-library (from M$) to access DirectShow
- C++-libraries built with mingw are *fundamentally* incompatible with those
built with MSVC. this is due to different name mangling schemes.
Ah yes, C++... here's a bit more on that topic: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/MixingCompilers
So I guess the solution would be either to use gmerlin on Windows, or reimplement that stuff in C...
