After a long time I got back to this and unfortunately it does not work for me :/

    uris = lrdf_get_setting_uris (desc->UniqueID);
    if (uris) {
       guint32 j;

       for (j = 0; j < uris->count; j++) {
         printf ("setting_uri : %s\n", uris->items[j]);
         if ((str = lrdf_get_label (uris->items[j]))) {
           printf ("setting_label : %s\n", str);
         }
       }
       lrdf_free_uris (uris);
     }

This gives me a lot of
setting_uri : _:genid223061.366f1
but no single label. Also I totally miss how I could acualy load a preset, so
that the values from the preset are acivated in the plugin.

I also studies the rdf file I have and I can't find anything that looks like a
list of names parameter sets there. Those are the rdfs that I have.
calf.rdf, cmt.rdf, fa-plugins.rdf, ladspa.rdfs, swh-aux.rdf, swh-plugins.rdf,
swh-scales.rdf, tap-plugins.rdf, tap_reverb.rdf

Any ideas?

Stefan
