Can't play mp3 / mp4

[Sandro Sacquegno]

Hi Sebastian,

just FYK:

in the smartphone (2.3.4) case, the offending plugin is just libav!
Removing it from the list makes the apk runnable.
It even open the mp4, but plays only the audio, complaining, of course, "No
decoder available for type 'video/x-h264' ".
Maybe the integrated libav is build for an arch. ARMv7, while the phone is
ARMv6?

Bye
Sandro
