My field is Mechanical Engineering, not CS. And let there be no mistake,
I very much respect the people who work on the packages and I appreciate
their efforts.

However, this bug report requests an extremely important feature for ffmpeg and 
it is being denied (rightly) because of licensing issues. There are two ways to 
fix this:
1) Rewrite the AMR codecs from scratch under a FOSS license.
2) Relicense the existing AMR codecs.

Both approaches are currently under development. This bug cannot be
fixed TODAY, but that does not invalidate it. The day will come when one
or both of the solutions will come to fruitation, and that day this bug
can be fixed. It should remain open until then.
