Ok i still have not resolved the issues.
I can confirm i have the Windows Platform SDK and the Direct-X SDK (June 2010) installed.
I have executed the dx_setenv.cmd in the DirectX SDK and in my System Environmental Variables i have DXSDK_DIR set to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\

I do not however have any entry referring to the Platform SDK.
The headers and libs
vmr9.h not found
dshow.h not found
strmiids.lib not found
dmoguids.lib not found
msdmo.lib not found
d3d9.h not found
vmr9.h not found
dshow.h not found
strmiids.lib not found
dmoguids.lib not found
msdmo.lib not found
d3d9.h not found

are contained within the sdk in the following folders and the DirectX include folders
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Lib
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Includes
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Lib
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Includes

Should there be an entry in my environmental variables for the platform SDK. I have run the SetEnv.cmd and also SetReg.exe just for the hell of it
I would really like to get this sorted, if anyone can make a valid suggestion i would be most appreciative 
I have tried manually passing the locations using a command such as
configure -platform win32-msvc -prefix "C:\qt\qt-shared" -shared -I "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\Include" -L "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\Lib" -I "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Include" -L "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Lib"
configure -platform win32-msvc -prefix "C:\qt\qt-shared" -shared -I "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\Include" -L "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\Lib" -I "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Include" -L "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Lib"

However this does not seem to work. I can't work out where the configure is searching for the locations of the required libraries. Would it be something in the registry or an env var ??
The error has changed, to the following now

Cannot find windows.h, funny thing is that it resides in the specified include directory
