Before 1.1.0, the RTP Info carries the sequence number of the next to-be-
packetized RTP payload. Depending on the duration of the output queue compared 
to the packetization time, it is likely to be slightly ahead of the next to-
be-sent packet sequence number.

From 1.1.0, VLC specifies the sequence number of the next to-be-sent packet 
instead.
