Because the qtdemux and AMR modules do not agree on the media type, and
although I'm trying to follow Ronald's hints about fixing that, it has so
far only yielded a seg fault.

I'm trying, and I believe I have figured out the build problem: It looks
like someone completely deleted amr.c from gstreamer's ffmpeg snapshot.
Since that person probably was not me or the ffmpeg folks, I'm looking
here for help.
Can anyone here tell me why amr.c is missing from the ffmpeg snapshot,
and/or the best way to get AMR support back in there?
I have tried using fresh ffmpeg sources, but they are so different from
what gst-ffmpeg expects that it's an exercise in frustration. I guess I
can try grafting a current amr.c back into the gst-ffmpeg distribution,
but this would be easier if I had some direction.
