+ \section1 Multimedia and Phonon Support
+
+ Qt provides a backend for Qt's multimedia module, Phonon, which supports
+ video and sound playback through Symbian's Multimedia Framework, MMF.
+
+ In this release the support is experimental. Video playback may have
+ flickering issues, and support for effects and playback queueing is
+ incomplete.
+
+ The audio and video formats that Phonon supports depends on what support
+ the platform provides for MMF. The emulator is known to have limited
+ codec support.
+
+ In addition, there exists a backend for the Helix framework. However, due
+ to it not shipping with Qt, its availability depends on the Symbian
+ platform in use. If available, it is loaded instead of the MMF plugin.
