Hi Alexey, 

the second pass does not need the AVI from first pass, it's all in the 
stats-file. That should contain one line of data per frame. 
Is it possible that the file isn't written correctly? You might want to 
just count the lines... If it's too short, then the codec 
doesn't know what to do with the remaining frames and might encode them at 
a too low fixed quant, causing the oversize.
