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. ** Changed in: vlc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist Status: New => Incomplete -- VLC just don't run my .3gp videos https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/117232 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
