The ffmpeg output (at the very top) will hint you towards that.

I guess if the identical versions of ffmpeg and all used libraries are
identical (same versions, same configuration, not necessarily same
compilers though), it should work.

Your ffmpeg base code seems in sync (judging from the reported versions
of the libav* libraries).

But since these two differ version-wise:

you can suspect that they won't create bitwise identical output in the
payload.
