Most likely this is due to a mismatch in the compiled libraries.
As with most dll problems on Windows, Dependency Walker is your friend.

Open libgstx264.dll with it and see if all the required DLLs are found
and have the required entry points.

If you need further assistance, please also state how you obtained the
libraries, i.e. whether you compiled them yourself or from where
you've downloaded them.
