when streaming using RTSP, the separate RTP streams have timestamps
starting from different offsets, so at the beginning of the stream
timestamps are quite meaningless.
After the first RR packet is sent, these offsets can be synced and
meaningful timestamps can be issued.

my idea for fixing this bug, is to output avpacket(s) from avformat with
dts=pts=AV_NOPTS_VALUE until the timestamps become synched across the
streams, and only then set the dts and pts.
