This seems to be fixed in version 0.3ubuntu12 of command-not-found.
Now ffmpeg and ffplay do not suggest any package

** Changed in: command-not-found (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Released

Title:
  Trying to run ffmpeg/ffplay on the command-line suggests incorrect
  packages

Status in “command-not-found” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  On Trusty (alpha from 2014-03-26), without libav installed, here is
  what happens if you try to run ffmpeg or ffplay :

  $ ffplay
  Le programme 'ffplay' n'est pas encore installé. Vous pouvez l'installer en tapant :
  sudo apt-get install libav-tools
  $ ffmpeg
  Le programme 'ffmpeg' n'est pas encore installé. Vous pouvez l'installer en tapant :
  sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

  (quick translation : these program are not installed, you can install
  them with apt-get install libav-tools - for ffplay - and apt-get
  install ffmpeg - for ffmpeg)

  If you install libav-tools, ffplay still gives the same suggestion
  If you try to install ffmpeg, you get :

  $ sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
  Lecture des listes de paquets... Fait
  Construction de l'arbre des dépendances       
  Lecture des informations d'état... Fait
  Aucune version du paquet ffmpeg n'est disponible, mais il existe dans la base
  de données. Cela signifie en général que le paquet est manquant, qu'il est devenu obsolète
  ou qu'il n'est disponible que sur une autre source

  E: Le paquet « ffmpeg » n'a pas de version susceptible d'être
  installée

  (quick translation : the package ffmpeg as no version that might be
  installed)

  
  What I would expect :
  - ffmpeg/ffplay command-lines should suggest the same package.
  - if these command-lines are replaced by avconv/avplay, they should not suggest any package (or they should redirect to avconv/avplay like on Precise)
  - we should never suggest a package that can not be installed on this version, or a package that does not include the command-line
