You can create your own input files using e.g. ffmpeg or mplayer. If you want 
to test x264 with a "real" movie, I can recommend the uncompressed frames 
from the open source movie "Elephants Dream". You can download them in 
different resolutions from here: http://media.xiph.org/ED/

If you put them in a directory and rename them so they are numbered 
contiguously starting with 001, you can use ffmpeg to merge them to a YUV 
input video as follows:

ffmpeg -f image2 -i %03d.png -pix_fmt yuv420p rawvideo.y4m
