[MPlayer-users] Can't access one particular site

I've just installed mplayerplug-in from Livna on the i386 side of an
x86-64 system.  It seems to work fine, in particular it plays the
Quicktime movie trailers at www.apple.com/trailers . The exact versions
installed are:
        $ rpm -qa 'mplay*'
        mplayerplug-in-3.45-1.lvn7
        mplayer-1.0-0.80.20070715svn.lvn7
        mplayer-fonts-1.1-4.lvn6
        mplayer-gui-1.0-0.80.20070715svn.lvn7

However it won't display the video, which appears to be Quicktime,
embedded in this site:
web.mac.com/jbdelong/iweb/Brad%20DeLong%27s%20iWeb/Morning%20Coffee%20Video%20Podcasts/628F2080-F343-4EEC-B4C9-1BA671DC2B59.html

When I click on "Start", the window displays "Getting Playlist", and
hangs.  Can anyone else display this video?

Also, I tried to get a debug log by putting the lines:
        debug=1
        logfile=/home/jonrysh/.mplayer/mplayerplug-in.log
into the file $HOME/.mplayer/mplayerplug-in.conf .  So far nothing has
happened: debug doesn't show up when I click "Config" in an mplayer
window (Is it supposed to?), and no log file has appeared.  Do I need to
rebuild mplayer and/or mplayerplug-in?

BTW: The video is an estimate of the wealth of Mr. Darcy, the
prospective bridegroom in Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice".

Thanks - jon
