Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
Sorry if this is a duplicate. Feel free to mark it as invalid as it's related to the poor web designers from apple.
I just came accross a problem when trying to play trailers from http://

Even with ubuntu-
trying HD content ( which seems binary mov playlist ) just do nothing.
Again, that's not Ubuntu faulted , that's apple one. But people just think it's ubuntu fault ..... Sad!

So I quickly find out what was wrong.
Apple is restricting through the UserAgent access to the files on its server. ( Maybe it doesn't make enough money to pay the BW :-) )
So it's all explain here : http:// www.hd- trailers. net/blog/ 2009/08/ 20/direct- download- links-from- apple-are- not-working/
The only solution I see, When Totem-mozilla launch in place of quicktime, it should maybe try to send a useragent corresponding to quicktime ?
