Hi Eric,
Thanks for getting back to me on this. I wanted to let you know that if I
change the embedding to http:// so the file streams through that protocal
it works. The only problem is I have some javascript that now throws an
unhandled exception. This can be seen here in Firefox:

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code:
0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIQTScriptablePlugin.GetRate]"  nsresult:
"0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame ::
http://www.kenvillines.com/quicktime/qtplayer.js :: isPlaying :: line 7"
data: no]

Again if I use a progressive download media file all this works fine. The
streaming file with http gives this exception. The Javascript controls
work OK though. What do you think? Is there another bug here? It looks
like it...

Hmm, I don't see any errors when I change your html to embed a movie trailer from apple.com, but the scripting API will return an error any time it gets an error from QuickTime, so you should be prepared to handle errors.

I don't see a call to "isPlaying" in your posted pages so I don't know what is happening, but I guess that the movie hasn't loaded enough to query that property. You can use the "PluginStatus" and "MaxTimeLoaded" properties to find out how the download is progressing to avoid this kind of problem.
