Description Olivier Crête 2009-08-21 03:17:09 UTC 
Playing this file with playbin (or playbin2) fails:

http://movies.apple.com/movies/fox/avatar/avatar2009aug0820a-tsr_h640w.mov

It seems that it needs to do something special in the HTTP request when fetching the redirect, because it only returns an HTML page.

This is from:
http://www.apple.com/trailers/fox/avatar/teaserlarge.html

Also, I guess we should have something special in playbin/totem when the redirect is an text/html to open it in a browser instead or something like that..
