I've jst installed it to try and it is IMO cude.
Try something like
totem /path/to/file
Which is what worked for me. I just pointed to a sub directory that
contained four mp4 files and it started playing the first.
Caveat I had to "close the window" to stop it playing.
The terminal in which I invoked the program spewed lots of
errors/warnings.
Best of luck.
