Some movie trailers don't play

That's a gstreamer problem, they work in playbin2.

There's another problem that there are some (can't remember which ones) don't get parsed properly and try and play text/html.

"The Christmas Carol" trailer plays fine here on ubuntu intrepid, both SD and HD.
Is that a win32 specific issue?

@Michał: isn't the other issue you're mentioning bug #418040?

Yes , this issue of the movie trailer 'A christmas carol' not playing is there only on win32.

Hmm I think I'm wrong about playbin2, it's qtdemux's fault, maybe there are some fixes in ubuntu? I can't play them on openSUSE either.

The other issue - there were some trailers I wasn't able to play because (probably) the parsing in the plugin didn't manage to find direct video links in html code. I'll have to see if I'm able to reproduce.

I'm getting the 'no moov...' error with following trailers:
- A Christmas Carol
- Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel
- Antichrist
- Halloween 2
- The September Issue

And there's a new thing:
'The Lovely Bones' complains about a RLE Decoder?

Here's my 'gst-inspect qtdemux':
