Totem als Linux-Alternative zu Windows Media Player (wmp)
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Totem is a solid Linux alternative for most Windows Media Player users who need a straightforward player for music and video. It handles the common audio formats out of the box, supports popular video containers, offers basic playlist creation, and shows subtitles without extra configuration. Users who rely on deep library management, tight Windows‑only codec support (especially older WMV/ASF files), or tight integration with Windows Explorer will find Totem lacking. For everyday playback and light library tasks on a GNOME desktop, Totem works well; power users may need supplemental tools or plugins.

Was anders ist
- No built‑in support for proprietary Windows codecs like older WMV/ASF without installing extra GStreamer plugins","Limited library management; no automatic music tagging, album‑art fetching, or advanced sorting","No Windows Explorer‑style right‑click context integration","No built‑in CD ripping or burning features","No direct export of playlists to WMP‑specific .wpl format

Totem can open the same audio and video files that Windows Media Player plays, provided the necessary GStreamer codecs are installed. It cannot open or edit WMP's proprietary playlist files (.wpl) directly, and it does not export to that format. For plain media files (MP3, MP4, AVI, WMV) it works as long as the appropriate codec packages are present; otherwise you may need to install the "gstreamer‑plugins‑bad" or "ugly" sets.
Von Windows Media Player (wmp) zu Totem wechseln – Schritt für Schritt
- Install Totem from your distribution's package manager (e.g., sudo apt install totem)
- Install the full set of GStreamer plugins to cover common Windows codecs (sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-plugins‑bad gstreamer1.0-plugins‑ugly)
- Import your music folder into Totem by dragging it into the player or opening the folder from GNOME Files
- Recreate any important playlists manually in Totem or export them from WMP as M3U and open those files in Totem

Can Totem play WMV files out of the box?
Only if the appropriate GStreamer codec packages are installed; otherwise playback will fail.
Does Totem manage music metadata and album art like WMP?
It shows embedded metadata but does not automatically fetch missing tags or album art; tools like puddletag can fill that gap.
Is there a way to transfer WMP playlists to Totem?
Export the playlists from WMP as M3U files and open them in Totem; native .wpl files are not supported.
