Just send a packet of 867 + rtp_header_size (usually 12) bytes. Have a
look at RFC 1889 and RFC 3016 for more details.

BTW: I just had a look at the current RTP code in libavformat, and it
evolved quite a lot since the last time I looked at it... I suspect
sending MPEG4 video orver RTP with libavformat can "almost work": if I
do not misread the code, the M bit is not properly set, but everything
else should be ok. If I have some time, I'll test it and I'll send a
patch if it does not work.
