This is very good question. We should make a decision. If we use 50Hz, we 
can easily calculate frames per second, otherwise we have to translate 
sampling rate to physical rate.. But it's the only good point which I see.

Also, the situation is very easy for GSM where the sampling rate is fixed, 
but what about some variable rate compressions with different sampling 
rate / physical rate ratio?
