Well, if a plugin is no longer actively maintained, it's probably time to drop it. You know what they say about dead horses ;-).
Being actively developed and being needed are two different things. I wouldn't want to drop all the plugins that aren't under active development any more, as this would probably be true for 2/3 of my plugins.
If you put all your plugins into PLUGINS/src under the VDR source directory (with the old Make.global still in place), change into PLUGINS/src and do for i in *; do make -C $i all; done I would guess that they build regardless whether they use an old or new Makefile. Maybe you should give it a try.
Nope, as you forgot to filter out folders with version numbers. Plus, any updated plugin (at least any built-in plugin) does no longer create the *.so.$APIVERSION file, and there's no generic way to do this.
All updated plugins require an additional make install, that will create the *.so.$APIVERSION in some folder defined in vdr.pc. However, some old-style plugins will do totally different things on make install, like xineliboutput for example.
Thats why I wasn't even able to set up a running test build of my VDR yet, even though it complied without any issues: Total mess of .so files.
