Well, I do not know if this fact is documented...

However, the fact that ffmpeg selects AVFMT_FLAG_NONBLOCK basically 
means that the application wants to take care of the timing by itself. 
And "-re" just asks ffmpeg to read (and write) the stream at the correct 
rate - according to the timestamps (this is what we use for network 
streaming, too).
