May be increase the bitrate and the resolution.

I have used the following parameters in my config file for webm over HTML5 without video

<Stream test1.webm>            # Output stream URL definition
   Feed feed1.ffm              # Feed from which to receive video
   Format webm

   # Audio settings
   #AudioCodec vorbis
   #AudioBitRate 64             # Audio bitrate
   NoAudio
   # Video settings
   VideoCodec libvpx
