will I be allowed to use libavcodec and libavformat libraries in a paid

I'm of interest to similar problem. As far as I've understood the LGPL it
doesn't include static linking with commercial code, though it allows
dynamic linking (a DLL). Buying a license to X264 (if you had just that case
in mind) you transform GPL'ed software to commercial one, as you've bough a
commercial license. Both GPL and LGPL explicitly prohibit to mix their code
with commercial code and distribute the result. Therefore the answer is NO.
I'm not completely sure but I believe this is correct interpretation of LGPL
and GPL.
Best regards,
Alexander
