Set had the same proposal, but I I have been pushing to follow standards as closely as possible, and there is no freedesktop category for "visual". Video is rather a mix between audio and graphics, which does not make it strictly visual, so I do feel it is correct not lumping it with graphics all together. The three main categories in how freedesktop standardizes is: * Audio * Graphics * Video More about freedesktop categories - http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/apa.html This page needs to be updated - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/FreedesktopCategories Also, Debian has categories for packages, which are called "sections". And, there are three sections there as well: * Sound * Graphics * Video Here are the Debian sections in Ubuntu Trusty - http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/ Currently, we are categorizing desktop files only, but the idea is all of our categorization has the same base. Our menu (freedesktop categories), our meta packages and our yet unexisting documentation, all though they won't be identical. > > That's a really hard thing your trying to do.

I'm using the Debian sections to lump packages into the three groups, audio(sound), graphics and video. Also, packages are grouped by the release pockets: main, universe, multiverse and restricted. If a pocket is not represented, no multimedia packages exists with a desktop file in that pocket.
