+    \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.
