Too many packets buffered FFMPEG 4 Error (v1.10.1 on Ubuntu)

I am trying to play a video file across the web-based media browser for serviio. I am using Serviio 1.10.1 on Ubuntu 16.04 with ffmeg 4.1.1 (which I installed over a PPA). Some files play correctly but I have recently gotten an error

  Code:
2019-02-23 10:49:09,895 WARN  [ProcessExecutor] Process ffmpeg has a return code of 1! This is a possible error. Detailed output follows.
Press [q] to stop, [?] for help
Too many packets buffered for output stream 0:1.
[aac @ 0x556f0bd14640] Qavg: 884.127
[aac @ 0x556f0bd14640] 2 frames left in the queue on closing
Conversion failed!


The file isn't corrupted insofar as it plays using the Videos app in ubuntu. The file has these characteristics

  Code:
Matroska video (video/x-matroska)
Video Codec: H.264
Video Framerate: 24 frames per second
Video Bitrate: 22381 kbps
Audio: E-AC-3 (ATSC A/52B)
Audio Channels: Surround S.1
Audio Sample rate: 48000Hz
Audio bitrate: 640kbps


Nothing about my Serviio setup is specialized other than I did set up a script to let it start on startup.

The following page seems to present a solution to the error but I am not sure how to add ffmpeg options to serviio.

Re: Too many packets buffered FFMPEG 4 Error (v1.10.1 on Ubu

Looks like a bug in FFMpeg v4, Serviio is recommended to use with 3.x. So either wait for FFmpeg to fix it or build older FFMpeg and point Serviio to it.

I actually downgraded to ffmpeg v3 via PPA. I am getting the same error

The ffmpeg version is as follows

Did you perchance see the stackoverflow bug I sent in the last message? Would there be some way to add ffmpeg flags like that?
