You are running out of memory. While in an ideal work it should not crash and there is a bug somewhere thats not checking all failure cases somewhere, the lack of memory will always result in ffmpeg failing eventually, even if cleaner then a crash.

Try latest master, because you are probably hitting bug in amerge filter that have been fixed.
