To reproduce: 1. Go to http://www.gesteves.com/experiments/starwars.html The audio never plays. It worked just great in 5.0.3.

No good reason; I'll use CFSTR instead.

You should explain it in the ChangeLog! If you run 5.0.3 against QuickTime 7.6.9, the problem still reproduces. I suspect this is a change in the list of MIME types which we get back from QuickTime.
(continued...) Actually, it's probably a change in CoreAudio (which ships with the QuickTime installer, but lives inside AAS). I'll try to track down old versions to double check.
Nevermind, looks like this was a regression caused by: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49497 http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/72119 We started asking the system for extension->MIME type mappings; in the Windows case, this meant asking the Registry. QuickTime adds these mappings during install time, but uses a different mechanism than we do when querying components for their MIME types, so their mapping list is more extensive than the one we come up with during QTMovie::initializeSupportedTypes().

Thanks for tracking it down! That makes me feel a lot better. Are there other MIME types that will hit the same problem? Should we teach QTMovieWin how to read the registry the same way QuickTime does?

I talked about this with Eric; the code which extracts MIME types from the QuickTime components during installation is incredibly hairy. He would really prefer not pulling that code into WebKit. And while QuickTime writes to the registry during installation, there's no explicit guarantee that the version of QuickTime you're running against is the same as the version which wrote to the registry. We could also remove the section of the windows MediaPlayerPrivate which queries the Registry for extension->MIME mappings; since that seems to be the original cause of the regression.

He would really prefer not pulling that code into WebKit. And while QuickTime writes to the registry during installation, there's no explicit guarantee that the version of QuickTime you're running against is the same as the version which wrote to the registry. > Actually it turns out QuickTime has a helper component we can use that loads the "extended" MIME metadata from all installed components and unpacks it into a much more reasonable format. This is what the QuickTime installer uses to configure the registry, so we should use it as well so we end up with the same list of types.

I’m surprised that we are not capitalizing the WK in the typedef. Enspaced. There was already one typedef'd callback function in the WebKitSystemInterface.h that was prefixed with a lower-case "wk", so I just followed the convention. The convention could be wrong though.

No really. :) One more thing: since MacRoman is a superset of ASCII, CFString will scan the string and if it finds all ASCII characters it will just store the string as ASCII. So in the end it amounts to the same thing, except for any weird edge cases where a MIME Type has a MacRoman character included.
