You probably installed a QuickTime codec that broke the connection between between certain embedded video and the plug-in. This happened on one of my systems, but it eventually cleared up. I have no idea what caused the problem or why it cleared up. You might try experiment with your QuickTime preferences files.

I have the same problem. Firefox and Quictime work as ususal, Safari gives the same question mark. I have the problem only on my G5, not on my iBook. Nobody?

Open the folder /YourHardDrive/Users/YourUserName/Library/ and delete the file com.apple.quicktime.plugin.preferences.plist . This should fix it, hopefully.

It could also be a broken link and the file is not on the server.

I deleted com.apple.com.quictime.plugin.preferences.plist and even the quictimeplayer.plist and no result. What else could it be? I have no idea myself, never seen this before. Reinstalled Apple's last security update, does not help.
