To be clear here: They do modify it further than that by applying a number of patches.

For example, they replace libx264 with OpenH264 which also requires some changes to the UI code since it is (unfortunately) hardcoded to expect x264 to exist. While there have been efforts to upstream those changes, they have not yet been merged.

Thanks for that.

It seems (to me) to make sense, for OBS to want their name off of it.
