I had a little look into the source, but haven't found everything I was
looking for. Anyway it seems to me that probably those, who are using
qtvision with more success than us, have some Plugins in their qtvisionrc,
while we want to run it for 1st time, and the PluginFactory::scanForPlugins
function doesn't find any. The function starts like this:

_cfg = new KConfig("qtvisionrc", true);   // hack: no other way to get at
this?
                                // It's ok since this gets called at startup
                                // and we just use it to read from briefly.

_cfg->setGroup("Video Plugins");
_videoPlugins.clear();
KService::List vplugs = KServiceType::offers("QtVision Video Source");
doScan(vplugs, _videoPlugins, PluginDesc::VIDEO);

I didn't find anythig about KConfig, but I guess the problem is probably
here. Could someone please look at this? (Hint: remove your qtvisionrc from
~/.kde... temporarily and see if it can start that way)

If it works then the problem is somewhere else.

My plugins are installed at /usr/local/lib/kde3, and my
LD_LIBRARY_PATH starts like /usr/local/lib:/usr/lib/kde3/lib:...
I hope this is the only thing that is needed, right?

What should my KDEDIR be? Or is it used during runtime at all? My KDE stuff
is under /usr/lib/kde3 (Debian), but I installed qtvision with ./configure
--prefix=/usr/local, so I'm a bit confused what should KDEDIR be
/usr/lib/kde, or /usr/local/lib/kde3?
