Alright. I think I got my head on straight now Sebastian. I originally 
thought you meant it might be easier to rebuild the whole SDK including 
the GL plugins, so I went ahead and downloaded and installed all the 
required dependancies mentioned on the cerbero page. However, if 
rebuilding the GStreamer SDK is not really necessary, and it's not 
insurmountable to just build the GL plugins and use them with the 
current SDK binaries I have, I'm going to aim for that.

At this juncture I should mention that I appreciate the offer LRN - but 
currently it seems like I'm better off just trying to get things working 
with the countless tools I now have installed, rather than 'jump ship' 
again :E Trust me - I want this to work as fast as possible as well, but 
I'll have to exercise patience. I hope you guys don't mind holding my 
hand a little longer while I apply my best abilities to try and get this 
stuff compiled?

So just to recap, I now have installed:

MinGw, MSys, Git, CMake, Yasm, Wix, Windows SDK 7.1, Windows Driver Kit 
(7.1.0) - essentially all the required libs for the Cerbero build.

In my attempt to just get the plug ins compiled I've achieved the 
following! Cloning the GL plug ins from here:

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-gl

I wasn't sure how to then build stuff, but I recall LRN mentioning 
something about autogen, so I went ahead with trying that. Executing 
'autogen.sh' - pointed out I was missing 'autopoint'. I had a hard time 
figuring out exactly which package to get via the mingw package manager. 
Is there anyway of figuring out what 'autopoint' could be a part of? The 
only way I managed was by googling it and finding something about issues 
with the 'gettext' package, so I tried installing the mingw version of 
it (after reading that installing the msys version leads to msys DLL 
dependencies?). There seemed to have been some package conflicts as not 
all of the dependencies were extracted - perhaps due to existing 
versions? I have absolutely no idea where I should be begin to resolve 
that. Anyway, autopoint now seemed to exist in MSys so I continued on...

Executing 'autogen.sh' now throws the following error at me:

+ running autopoint --force ...
autopoint: *** Missing version: please specify in configure.ac through a 
line 'AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(x.yy.zz)' the gettext version the package 
is using autopoint: *** Stop.

I've googled the error message and cannot figure out if it's because the 
script actually needs tweaking, or because perhaps the package conflicts 
is causing me grief? Any thoughts?

Regards,
Gazoo
