After a bit more digging I found it is part of a package called gnome-media which as I suspected does pull in a lot of dependencies.
rokytnji is very good at identifying light-weight but functional alternatives so I think you made the right choice. The -s in his original command simply tells apt to simulate the install rather than really do it.
