        It's not that one can't play *.mov files. I downloaded the avatar quicktime trailer and it still plays beautifully. It looks like Apple is checking other things besides the browser and blocking Linux clients.

            I have VLC set as my multimedia quicktime player in FireFox. Up till Apple changed their website access to mov files I had no problem playing them. The last one I looked at was the Avatar trailer, in December. Attempts to play it now fail.

            I've had twelve different media sources playing with VLC at the same time in a 3 X 4 grid on my screen. While I have never had a reason to set up streaming output I have no doubts that an instance of VLC would be able to stream while FireFox is playing another video with embedded VLC. After all, each instance can work on a different URL, or even on the same one. As far as streaming is concerned, you can stream from more than one port...
