Unfortunately ffserver just simply will not get the job you want done. You have hit the same wall as everyone else on the internet. The best I can get is about 3 second delay which gradually increases to about 5-10 seconds as the stream runs for a few hours.

the stream isn't decoding with ffmpeg for me also. I do not know why. it works with ffplay which just confuses me more!

I am looking into Py-Media to see if i can just write my own code for a similar project. I want to stream ardrone video and minipulate the images in the stream.

p.s. look into gstreamer, I saw others discussing it yields different results.
