The Intel MVC decoder can use hardware acceleration if you have the right CPU (supporting QuickSync) and the latest Intel drivers, but the gain is not very important.
For the crash, be sure to launch __ENCODE_3D_LAUNCHER.cmd and not directly __ENCODE_3D.cmd, as otherwise the PC can go to sleep or hibernate mode during the encoding, and x264 doesn't like that at all! Also, if the problem persists, try to turn off the hardware acceleration of the decoding with Settings -> MVC Decoder -> Hardware Acceleration -> Disabled.
