What is the problem you're talking about?  If you mean encoder_encode
not returning a frame in the first few frames of input, that's
normal--that's part of the frame delay.  Threads cause frame delay as
well, and by default, x264 will automatically pick multiple threads
depending on how many cores your system has.  To disable this, set
threads to 1.
