Can't play mp3 / mp4

Hi Sebastian,

actually I was missing to include GSTREAMER_PLUGINS_CODECS_RESTRICTED which
are the relevant ones for my needs, as checked verifying PLUGIN.MK

Unfortunately, trying a simple "playbin uri=file:///sdcard/video.mp4" :

on a tablet with 4.1: it dies with a SIGOUT or the like (i don't have it
here now)
on a phone with 2.3.4: it dies with a FATAL_EXCEPTION
(AndroidRuntime:ExceptionInInitializerError)

I'm using Tutorial3 as a base for the experiments.

This is the list in GSTREAMER_PLUGINS_CODECS_RESTRICTED := asfmux dtsdec
faad mpegpsdemux mpegpsmux mpegtsdemux mpegtsmux a52dec amrnb amrwbdec asf
dvdsub dvdlpcmdec mad mpeg2dec xingmux realmedia x264 libav

Is it worth trying remove some plugin from the list apart faad, mad and
libav?
Would it change anything using an explicit chain "filesrc....
qtdemux... h264parse... etc." instead of a "playbin"  (although I'm not
sure I would able to build such a pipeline...) ?

Thank a lot for your patience :)
Sandro
