 The MPEG encoder adds the side data "AV_PKT_DATA_H263_MB_INFO" for the
 codec H.263 if this features is activated via MpegEncContext->mb_info.
 This additional data is needed for RTP packetizing according to RFC2190
 (function "ff_rtp_send_h263_rfc2190").
 But at the end of avcodec_encode_video2(), the function
 av_packet_merge_side_data() is called. This function resets the side data
 of the packet again, after the side data was merged with the packet
 buffer:
 {{{
 pkt->side_data_elems = 0;
 pkt->side_data = NULL;
 }}}
 This behavior of av_packet_merge_side_data() breaks the RTP packetizer.
