related, because it happens only with Avidemux and on any computer!
I cannot reproduce this on Windows 10 (Intel Iris 540), on Linux (NVIDIA) or on macOS with current 2.7.7 builds (2.7.6 is already pretty outdated) with any of Qt themes (your screenshot shows the "windows" Qt theme). Is anything special needed (apart from Windows 7 with old Intel graphics) to be able to reproduce it?

100% finished.
Yes, we ask Windows from within the encoding dialog to shut down (ExitWindowsEx()) and it kicks Avidemux out of memory. The message "Requesting shutdown..." should appear in the log, however, so if it does not, we need a fflush(stdout) call with VC++ builds which don't flush the log to disk on every message. Everything thereafter is at Windows' discretion out of control of Avidemux, IMVHO.

Right, the "Time: " log entry shows the local time as returned by ctime(), other messages with timestamps use gettimeofday() which returns UTC. Why not?
