Something is not right with the libav package that is now the default instead 
of ffmpeg. The MP3 files produced by avconv consistently causes MP3 players to 
crash. The same command line with ffmpeg produces files that work with MP3 
players. The problem seems to be fairly well know, as many message threads 
about it can be found with Google. It must be something in the way the encoding 
is done that works with standard desktop/laptop systems but somehow exceeds the 
abilities of those tiny embedded player CPUs. You would think, since the 
problem has apparently existed for years, that something would have been done. 
But so far I haven't found any posts able to explain it and provide a setting 
that could fix it. And there is no sign that the authors of the av package have 
acknowledged any problems or any plan to work on this. Is it possible to make 
MP3 files that do not crash players with avconv? Or are you just stuck going 
back to ffmpeg if you want to make
 content for players?
