Description:

Please add gsm and speex codecs to ffmpeg. Both packages are already in extra. It's a matter of only adding 'gsm' and 'speex' to the depend array, and adding compile flags.

It would also be nice if we could have support for vo-amrwbenc and vo-aacenc in ffmpeg (because we don't have faac and faad2 anymore for ffmpeg), both packages are in AUR.
This task depends upon

i'm just curios, where and why do you need gsm and speex support?

Isn't ffmpeg the "_complete_ and free Internet live audio and video broadcasting solution for Linux/Unix"? I do transcode sometimes using those audio codecs. Besides, both gsm and speex packages are in the extra repo because other packages need them. Especially speex - which is, for example, a dependency for pulseaudio, which allot people use. So I think the dependency impact wouldn't be so big.
