Is it possible to completly remove Ubuntu's video player "totem"?
It's in the repositories under totem-gstreamer and totem-common,
so you should be able to do it with:
sudo apt-get remove totem-gstreamer totem-common
Or by going into your favourite package manager and deselecting
it there.
It looks like there's a dummy "totem" package that installs it
all nicely, but for some reason in my installation of xubuntu it
wasn't installed by default, so a sudo apt-get remove
totem
would just return "Package totem is not installed,
so not removed"
Edit:
Updated the above to also remove totem-common, which it leaves
behind.
description
Totem is
a movie player for the GNOME desktop. Through use of the
GStreamer backend many popular file and streaming
formats are supported including: MPEG audio and video
(MP3/MPV), Ogg, AVI, ASF, MOV, WMV, QuickTime, and more.
Playing of DVD and VCD media is also possible. Although
primarily intended as a movie player, Totem can also
play many audio formats.
For additional
documentation on interactive use of Totem select the
Help menu option. The menus allow access to some
features not available through keybindings or command-line
options.
