Some time ago I wanted to setup internet camera streaming via ffserver and I faced the same probalem as #1275. It was over a year ago, so I don't remember correctly, but a conclusion from debugging was that codec's private data are not initialized to their defaults. As I remember I was cased by allocating it on stack and calling avcodec_get_context_defaults3 without codec.
I reworked whole configuration parsing routine so I is allocated correctly now. This patchset also make order of entries in <Stream> tag not relevant. I think there is also a better error handling now (detecting wrong entry in a tag) and probably easier to improve that more. I know review will be a nightmare. Patches 1 & 3 are intended to be just a copy-paste, but there some changes in them. In patch 1 I added FFserver prefixes to stuff moved into header. In patch 3 I removed if(stream) etc checks. Overall after these changes streaming is working, but ffplay stops playing after few seconds. I noticed ffmpeg is working at 270fps which seems wrong. I guess this is different story anyway, because this also happen without patches and workaround described in ticket.
