           Summary: support weird wav/adpcm files in a ".REC" format

I have a trusty old iRiver IFP-180T, which I use as a voice recorder.

It creates some weird .REC files, which I so far used to convert with a binary
called "ifprecconv", part of http://ifpgui.sf.net (docs here?
http://ifpgui.sourcearchive.com/documentation/0.12.0-1/files.html), which uses
sox, it seems.

Playing the .rec files in a gstreamer app such as totem yields audible but
garbled sound, which gives me some hope that maybe it could be handled by
gstreamer. I'm in no position to provide a patch, but filing this in the hope
that perhaps gstreamer could support those files natively, which would be real
nice.
