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

[Fabián Rodríguez]

AMR (the audio codec in 3GP) has important licensing restrictions and is covered by several patents. Currently there is no way to freely distribute it unless potentially breaking local laws.

I've documented what I found in a similar gstreamer-related bug:
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gst-plugins-ugly0.10/+bug/184555

This basically means there will most likely never be official support
for AMR in Ubuntu unless this is resolved otherwise.

So, marking this as wishlist, incomplete for now.
