Comment (by importinis):

 In http://ffmpeg.org/ffserver.html#toc-Description  I see, that "ffserver
 is a streaming server for both audio and video. It supports several live
 feeds, streaming from files and time shifting on live feeds (you can seek
 to positions in the past on each live feed, provided you specify a big
 enough feed storage in ‘ffserver.conf’)."

 So ffserver is streaming server not encoder, so why to ignore servers
 params? In this case, params related to streaming server(ffserver) should
 NOT be ignored. Maybe you have an answer: How to set Preroll,
 StartSendOnKey in -override_ffserver ? I cant find any option.


 If you change just documentation - it doesnt help to solve HUGE BUG. To
 me, with or without "-override_ffserver"  ffserver is just tool in
 sandbox, because in both situations ffserver has bug's(this and
 http://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/1970).


 Thank you
