if I succeed I will try to write a step by step guide.
I have several other combinations/compilations to test ahead.
video is corrupt and must be fixed; you know it is essential.
other tests are (order is not meaningful):
- building phonon with DX SDK 2005 (that kdewin uses)
- adding -no-opengl to the configure command line.
- probably tring other backends like mplayer (as in QuarkPlayer)
although QuarkPlayer doesn't show video on my system! I don't know the reason; in the past it worked well.
- compiling with MS VC++
- ?

I am downloading the SDK libs of MS and I also going to compile the phonon libs.
please report your work here (configure commands, problems, results, etc.). gathering information can help us recognize common cases and guess causes of problems.

Did you run the "dx_setenv.cmd" and "setenv.cmd" before the compile like memtion in QT4.5 phonon install ?
yes; it seems to be essential anyway (qt's phonon backend uses MS DirectShow). you can see early outputs of the configure command; if there is not such env set, phonon support will be set to 'no' regardless of the command line options.
but I have only dx_setenv.cmd on my system!
maybe I should download the whole MS SDK (its huge!!), since setenv.cmd isn't in the MS DX SDK.
probably it will be other test case I have to try.

qt is being compiled now on my system. this time I used both the mingw patch and direct x headers from the kdewin and somewhat changed the configure command line.
I am waiting. it takes many hours evey time
