To me, it looks like the BSD 3-clause, a.k.a. "Modified BSD" license. Several files in ffmpeg's source tree seem to carry this license. > > Is that even GPL-compatible?

Good question. ffmpeg's LICENSE.md provides some license references, but is probably not meant as a template for distribution with a binary, and doesn't explicitly quote the BSD-licensed components. It does mention all GPL-licensed components, bit I assume to raise awareness for when ffmpeg is GPL and when it it LGPL - and what non-free means.
