My problem turned out to be with the Makefile. The part - ### Targets: all: $(ALL) was only creating PLUGIN2 being mplayer.so. I was getting 'Make has nothing to do for all:' I couldn't get it to work properly, so changed it to : ### Targets: ###all: $(ALL) #doesn't work for some reason SBB all: libvdr-$(PLUGIN).so libvdr-$(PLUGIN2).so ...and now both mp3 and mplayer work Thanks Simon
