Assuming you have the necessary codecs installed, it still doesn't work,
because Apple checks your "QuickTime"-Version with some piece of
Javascript. It seems to check the same info you see with 'about:plugins'.
The totem plugin says 7.21 which is too low. Make it something higher,
like 9.99 to be set forever.

PS: There's no official way to do that. You can either patch and then
rebuild from source -- or you just modify the binary ... (I admit to
have done the latter.) But this is all you need. The rest is taken care
of out of the box.
