If I go to: http://www.bmwfilms.com/site_layout/filmstream.asp?FilmID=1&Type=QT&size=large&d ir=off I'm unable to see the quicktime movie even though I can see other quicktime movies other places like http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/ai_trailer.html build 20010621 on win2k quicktime 5.0.1
On there embed tag they use type="video/QuickTime" I can see the movie with Netscape 4.x on apple.com/trailers they dont use type="video/QuickTime"
Keywords: 4xp
i confirm the bug...works fine on 4.x
Severity: normal → major
The default plugin shows up instead. I wonder if this is string case comparison problem as it's listed as video/quicktime in about:plugins. Does case matter on the content-type in the embed tag? Need a simplified test.
test case is now available at: http://gemal.dk/test/qt.html Very simple test case: <embed src="qt.mov" type="video/QuickTime"> <embed src="qt.mov" type="video/quickTime"> <embed src="qt.mov" type="video/quicktime"> <embed src="qt.mov"> Mozilla will only play the last two! So it is indeed a case comparison problem. Should be fixed asap....
Thnx, henrik!!

Arun, Can you see if PDT will accept this bug? It appears that without out, specifying the mime-type or extension in html must match that case of what the plugin vendor hard coded in the plugin.

Nominating nsbranch. This seems like a low-risk fix to me.

Adding vtrunk because fix is in the trunk and needs to be verified.
