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)
