DESCRIPTIONtotem is a movie player for the GNOME Desktop. It uses the powerful
GStreamer media framework to support a wide range of video and audio
formats. Although primarily intended as a movie player, totem can also
play many audio formats. Note that you may need to purchase and
install additional plugins to support some media formats.
For additional documentation on interactive use of totem select the
Help menu option. The menus allow access to some features not avail‐
able through keybindings or command-line options.
