Quicktime component not working in Firefox

I'm experiencing issues with Quicktime in Firefox. I have tried using manual embedding (by the usage of the object/embed tag combination). Firefox ignores the content and does not play it. Safari does.

I then proceeded to use ac_quicktime.js that is provided by Apple themselves to create the embedding code. But i get the same results.

When i try loading the video directly (by locating my browser to the video file) it is not being played as well. Given the fact that it works under Safari, i assume it is a Firefox issue?

I am running Firefox 8.0 but it is not of much relevance, as i am trying to develop a video component for my CMS and this has to run in all major browsers.

I'd be grateful for any suggestions!

It turned out to be somehow related to the video format - the problem occured with MOV files, not however with MP4 files. I cannot say i found the reason for FFs behaviour, but at least i found a workaround.
