I don’t know about ffmpeg, but plenty of OSS projects have outlined rules for who/when a project-wide/administrative decision can be made. It’s usually outlined in a CONTRIB or similar file.

Doubtful that's enough for a copyright grant. You'd need a signed CLA.

  No one said make it proprietary; there are other OSS licenses that would make ffmpeg non-viable for commercial usage.

    You need a copyright grant to change the license in any way.

      (Except for the part in the LGPL that lets you relicense it to later versions.)
