# av_log(ctx, AV_LOG_ERROR, "Cannot allocate memory.\n");\

"Cannot" and "could not" are not the same thing. Accuracy is paramount when
quoting error messages.

Having two unconnected graphs in the same graph is not a good idea.

And try using amerge+pan instead of amix; amix may have scheduling problems
that could explain a huge memory consumption.
