Pierre Ossman?  Can't seem find his email and it appears that he hasn't posted in years.  As for the developers, things don't look so good on freevo-devel.

Adding:
user-agent=QuickTime/7.5

to /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf made the appletrailer plugin work again. 
However, it very effectively breaks the youtube plugin. 

I took a look at the code, but got confused very quickly.  (I am but a
humble network engineer)  Class VideoItem has a mplayer_options, but
it's set from tvinfo[3] which is from show_name[0] from
config.VIDEO_SHOW_REGEXP_SPLIT(self.name)... it made my brain hurt.  I
guess you could try to set it after init, but that seems to be a kluge. 
I suppose I could look at it some more, but I still haven't had time to
update the wiki with the last information I found.

Somebody out there probably knows exactly where to stick this, right off
the top of their head.  However, developers seem to be scarce these
days.  Adding -user-agent 'QuickTime/7.5' is all that is needed to fix
this. 
    
Hi Dan,

This is great to know. You could try email the plugin writer (email 
address should be listed in the source file) and see if they could do 
it? Otherwise hopefully one of the other contributors might look at it.

In the mean time can you add a note in the wiki for others?

Thanks,

John
