RTP hinting is just as valid for 3gp2 as the other formats. It seems wrong to
hint iPod and PSP files and I guess you can use an external tool in those
cases, like when you want to prepare mov/mp4/3gp files for progressive
download. The RTP hinting done by libav is quite limited, as it is, and you're
already likely to use mp4box, or similar tool, for any non-basic hinting.
