Did you look at doc/examples/scaling_video.c?
Because I don't see the call to av_image_alloc() in your code...

Partly related:
If you are really interested in working with FFmpeg libraries, 
instead of downloading pre-compiled libraries, you should either 
install msys and mingw (which provide a debugger that would 
have helped you) or compile FFmpeg with msvc.
