My default video player for Ubuntu 18.04 has no seek bar/scrubber/progress bar at all. None of the preferences seem to have the ability to enable one.



Also, my totem video player is missing the file open options as well.



How do I enable them?

  • Have you checked out the help docs for Totem? If the default video player does not have the features you need, you may also want to consider installing a different player like VLC, which is included in the Ubuntu repositories and available in the GUI software center and apt

  • It's bizarre, because the screenshot for Totem video player has the seek bar. But mine does not

  • you might want to try to reinstall the package with sudo apt update followed by sudo apt-get --reinstall install totem. Another more exhaustive reinstall path would be to perform sudo apt update then sudo apt purge totem the sudo apt install totem. Both of these options may reset config files but the purge option will explicitly delete all configuration files in case your currently installed version is borked
