I'm reopening this bug, it looks like Apple is playing tricks on us again.
Confirmed on Linux (Ubuntu Karmic) and Windows.

It seems that it was a temporary malfunction, trailers play again.
I did some investigation, and interestingly, setting the User-Agent to "QuickTime" only seems to work, no need to specify a version.
However, until this is broken again, there is no need to change the plugin for now.
