How to play AMR files? - anonymous - 08-25-2022

Hello

I installed VLC a few weeks ago but there is probably something missing, it can't play AMR files. Does someone have a clue about this problem?

You likely need to install some extra codecs, like libavcodec-extra. Try using the package manager of your OS to search for the VLC codec packs.

It didn't help, the codec doesn't seem to work. I'll try to convert AMR files into OGG.

Hello

It seems to work with some AMR files now, I'll have to retry with the files that were originally not working even with VLC. Using VLC to play AMR files by default is in my todo list Wink

It works under Debian Bookworm but not under Mobian, I use the samr codec, I get the following error message:
main error: module not functional
main error: failed to create audio output
vlcpulse error: stream connection failure: incorrect state

MP4 files can be played, the problem concerns only AMR files. It's not a problem of missing codec as it's installed both on my computer and on my Pinephone. The module trees are different in the branch about "pulse", the rest seems to be working.
