Just starting with the most obvious, Gem.dll can't find pd.dll. Any clues? pd.dll is sitting there in the same directory as pd.exe and pd.com.
TL;DR a false positive
most likely because the Dependecy Walker (or whatever you are using) does not know that Gem.dll is loaded by pd.exe and therefore the pd.dll is already in the PATH.
if i understand your description of the problem correctly, Gem.dll *can* be loaded, it is only the plugins (e.g. gem_filmeAVI.dll) that make problems?
to see whether the plugin-loading mechanism works, try building/loading one of the test-plugins (filmTEST, videoTEST): they should be virtually dependency free (apart from the obvious pd.dll and Gem.dll)
