NNEDI is closed source and very slow from what i know
either way we need high quality interpolation in ffmpeg,
support for bayer downsampled aka raw color ccd images aka demosaicing
needs it. If thats a matter of copy and pasting existing code all the
better but i doubt this slightly. last time i checked the foss algorithms
in dcraw where just not performing very well, but this was years ago
also whatever we would use has to deal with aliasing (happens on some
real life images) and noise (happens when its dark and you arent hollywood
in a studio preteding its dark while its not). dcraw performed terrible
on noisy images when i last tried, the in camera jpg output beat it
but as said its all years ago since i looked into this ...
