To reproduce: 1. Install XiphQT <http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/> 2. Go to <http://people.mozilla.com/%7Eprouget/videos/demo_worker.html> The video fails to display, even though you can download this video and open it in QuickTime player.

The basic problem here is that WebCore can't figure out what MIME type the .ogv extension maps to, so it just uses "application/octet-stream". QTMovieWin does not claim to support that MIME type, so loading this video fails.

.ogv MIME type was added to the type registry in http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/43972, and the Windows Xiph QuickTime components have been updated to register MIME types with QuickTime correctly. http://people.mozilla.com/%7Eprouget/videos/demo_worker.html works with the most recent Xiph QT component.
