I've found the reason of my problem. Eventually I have to search inside
MythTV code.
I have actually mythvideo installed, and also the other plugins, but the
problem is that when I start mythfrontend, it checks if I have installed
mythvideo, but it only looks in /usr/local/lib/mythtv/plugis , and my
libmythvideo.so is in /usr/lib/mythtv/plugin. Starting at this point,
I've realized that for any reason (maybe after several mythtv and
mythplugins installations and uninstallations) mythtv uses
PREFIX=/usr/local and LIBDIR=/usr/local/lib, while mythplugins are
installed in /usr/lib (without "local"). Changing this values in
libmyth/mythcontext.cpp and recompiling it I've checked that I've the
new menu options available.
Thanks for all your help.
