Icecast uses HTTP 1.0 while Libav uses HTTP 1.1 and enables by default chunked post. Icecast actually forwards the HTTP chunk headers to the listener as part of the media stream (without the chunk encoding HTTP headers) causing the players to lose sync. Disabling the option is enough to feed icecast properly. (cherry picked from commit 76c70e33d2244a688832f03b53862eb5d9ad3b01) Signed-off-by: Luca Barbato <lu_zero@gentoo.org>
