I personally don't have a good feeling with pre-trained NNs in the codebase, too. However, I do not care much about what solution we take, but Mina's GSoC project also depends on the NN code that comes with this and therefore I'd encourage everyone to make up their mind to find a suitable solution sometime soonish. Maybe for the time-being, we might only accept such code reading in externally provided NNs and/or the ability to train using FFmpeg itself.
