There's no "lavc libx264" encoder. Both x264 and libx264 belong
together. The difference is that x264 is the actual encoder while
libx264 is its library other apps can link against and have support
for encoding. MEncoder uses libx264. Your "lavc libx264" is just a
wrapper for libx264 one can use

if you want to encode with mencoder using libx264, use: -ovc x264
-x264encopts <your-settings> ...... -o output.avi
