Charlie, yes I would recommend using mpv instead of totem. mpv will perform better and is the only other video player that will take advantage of Intel hardware acceleration properly [2]. I do _not_ recommend gnome-mpv [1] and also do _not_ recommend vlc because it seems to be lacking in hardware acceleration. I have no experience with SMPlayer, but please see also [2]. Tracy, the mpv close issue is bug 1720835. I think we should merge this into bug 1698270 now.
