These are the types of software we have in the Multimedia group.
The group seems to be called Sound & Video on my machine. And there is currently too many items in the menu to fit 2x screen height (2x768).
- Yet another starting point is, do not create another main group.
Just do all the subgrouping inside Multimedia.
I'm thinking grouping as consumers (ie viewers, players), and producers (pre: capture|record|import|rip, manipulation: editing|compile|render, post: convert|production|output to file|streamer|titling).
Some applications would cover all three areas, which makes this tricky (jacks of all trades). And some apps just tie multiple other apps together (DVD::RIP).
Here is a possible layout; it is really just to solicit more opinions: --- bash-4.0$ tree --dirsfirst . === `-- Sound & Video |-- Capture & Import | |-- AV Demultiplexing | |-- Audio Recording | |-- CD Ripper | |-- DVD Ripper | |-- Flash Get | |-- Stream Recorder | |-- VNC Recorder | `-- Video Capture |-- Editing & Conversion | |-- Audacity | |-- Blender ? | |-- DVBcut | |-- Hydrogen | `-- Kino |-- Live Gig |-- Output Generation | |-- AV Multiplexing | |-- Audio Streamer | |-- CD Writer | |-- DVD Subtitler | |-- DVD Writer | |-- Format Changer | |-- K3B | `-- Video Streamer |-- Tools | |-- Instrument Tuner | `-- Metronome |-- Audio Mixer and Volume Control |-- Audio Player |-- Media Library |-- Video & TV Playback `-- Video Player === Cheers, DaveT.
