User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b12pre) Gecko/20110205 Firefox/4.0b12pre
Build Identifier:               Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b12pre) Gecko/20110205 Firefox/4.0b12pre

Since the update from build 20110203 to 20110204 the Apple Trailers are not playing on my main PC.
Or other Quicktime movies are "broken" (big sized; without user controls [play, stop, volume]; only black page; ...)

Firefox 4 beta 11 build 3 works well.

Could this something to do with:
[Core:Plug-ins]-BBC iplayer fullscreen function broken in FF4 beta 9, 10 and nightly builds [Win]
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=628872

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
first example:
1. open the Apple trailers page
2. select one movie and click on "watch now"
3. a black window with (user controls) opens but the video doesn't play

second example:
1. http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/NASA45/textonly/MM_video.html
2. click on one of the movies
3. only a black page is displayed
