- Play any xine or GStreamer supported file (depending on the backend chosen, defaults to xine)
- LIRC support
- Shoutcast, m3u, asx, SMIL and ra playlists support (also usable from a shipped LGPL library)
- DVD (with menus), VCD and Digital CD (with CDDB) playback, disc-type automatically detected
- TV-Out configuration with optional resolution switching
- 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, 5.1, stereo and AC3 Passthrough audio output
- Full-screen mode (move your mouse and you get nice controls) with Xinerama, dual-head and Viewport support
- Remote operation mode to control a running Totem
- Seek and Volume controls
- Aspect ratio changing, Scaling based on the video's original size
