mplayer and mozilla-mplayer don't support the latest version of QuickTime

[ubu-for]

Every time I try to watch a movie trailer from apple.com, I get the following error message.
"Get the Latest QuickTime"

http://www.apple.com/trailers/disney/walle/trailer_medium.html

I use Feisty and Firefox 2.0.0.14 with mozilla-mplayer.

Apple has just released a new version of quicktime which may be causing your problems. Make sure you update your software to the current versions and try again. If that doesn't help report back.

Just tested website on Hardy, and it loaded with no issues. So fix has already been released, and I am unsure if Feisty will get this backport?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug has been fixed in the latest version of Ubuntu - the Hardy Heron.

If you need a fix for the bug in previous versions of Ubuntu, please follow the instructions for "How to request new packages" at [WWW] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports#request-new-packages

It's broken again on Hardy in Swiftweasel 3.0 and Firefox 3.0.
