Looks like an xvid internal problem. Unfortunately, AFAIK, xvid error
reporting facilities aren't exactly ideal, so isn't trivial to see
what's going wrong.
What is the source of your xvid package (I mean source repository)?
And what is the version of your xvid encoder?

I'm not aware of general problem between transcode and xvid (i.e.
outdated module and/or API and/or ABI).

As workaround, you can use ffmpeg's mpeg4 encoder (-y ffmpeg -F
mpeg4), but I'd like to know what's going wrong here, since this isn't
the first XviD failure report that I've seen recently (there is
another just a few messages around).

As further test I suggest to temporary disable external configuration
(rename or move away configuration file) and see if this helps.
It should NOT help, but is interesting to make sure ;)
(because if this helps a transcode problem is much more probable).
