Yes. Remember, this is the list of *visible* attributes.

Is there a way to give recommendations to 3rd party apps?
I could imagine that the suggested video:interlacing ("tff" (top field 
first),
"bff" and "progressive") and (audio|video):sampling (4:1:1 (DV), 4:2:0 
(MPEG)) could be interesting inside such specialized apps. They may add 
those attributes and index them to query for that exact footage.
The question is, how can more of these kinds of apps share these 
attributes?
Or should Haiku do provide them all by default, but just have them 
"non-visible" in Tracker?

Humdinger
