[Bug 125835] Re: cannot play audio on .3gp movies

[rothchild]

I've been trying to work around this bug / issue I  understand it's a
licensing issue with the AMR codec there's more info here:
http://66.102.9.104/search?q=cache:Yc48HTudC_cJ:www.penguin.cz/~utx/amr+penguin.cz&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=2&gl=uk&client=firefox-a
but unfortunately the actual penguin.cz site (and the build script for
the amr code seems to be down :-( )

There's also a thread here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=178455 and a fairly useful walk
through here: http://www.thisismobility.com/blog/?p=156 although I've
been getting stuck on how to bring the AMR codec and FFMPEG together in
compilation.

Some people have said that I should just install realplayer and be done
with it but the point is really that I don't want my machine littered
with different media players and have to know that I need different ones
for different files I just want one that just works ;-)

I can't find it again now but there is a SOC project on AMR and there's
also a guide here with a link to the AMR codec from the phenomenally
awfull 3gp website here: http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-
plugins-bad/ext/amrwb/README?view=markup&revision=1.1

Hope this gives someone with the appropriate wisdom the tools to make
this happen by default in ubuntu (or perhaps a simple to use medibuntu
package?)

Cheers
Child
