Get rid of the "2>/dev/null" in modules/stream/handler.pl in the line

        $ffmpeg_pid = open(DATA, "/usr/bin/ffmpeg -y -i $filename -s
320x240 -r 24 -f flv -ac 2 -ar 11025 -ab 64k -b 256k /dev/stdout
2>/dev/null |");


and check your apache error log (which will get spammed without the
redirect).
