Enabling that driver involves (at least) two prerequisites: 1) Add source package libamf (as you mention yourself). 2) Add binary package libavformat-extra (for GPLv3+ licensed code). The latter is mentioned in a comment in rules file of ffmpeg, but it is not clear to me how complicated it would be to introduce such libavformat-extra. A small step that could help track this bugreport is if someone (you?) file an ITP or RFP about libamf, which this bug could then depend on.
