Comment 10 for bug 6366

>The obvious solution is to, you know.... not use stupid proprietary codecs?

William, this is NOT a solution. This is not about creating a video to watch on my computer. If that was the case I would have used Ogg/theora. But I am trying to get a video on my cellphone. Cellphones use either the very low quality 3GP format, or the better MP4+AAC. They don't playback anything else. As you can understand, I can't do anything about it, I can't change the industry. I need AAC.

>the AAC libraries (faac/faad) would need to go to main

Please note that the problem is not installing the faac/faad packages. The problem is recompiling ffmpeg with these options: --enable-faad --enable-faac
Without specifically recompiling ffmpeg with these options, having faac/faad installed won't help.
