    <title>Introduction to Totem</title>

    <para>The <application>Totem</application> package contains the official
    movie player of the GNOME desktop environment based on
    <application>GStreamer</application>. It features a playlist, a full-screen
    mode, seek and volume controls, as well as keyboard navigation. This is
    useful for playing any <application>GStreamer</application> supported file,
    DVD, VCD or digital CD.</para>

    <para>Now that this package uses the <application>clutter</application> toolkit,
    it is only useful if you have hardware accelerated video.</para>
