There is but it's masked:
* net-www/mplayerplug-in [ Masked ]
Latest version available: 0.60
Latest version installed: 0.40

Homepage: http://mplayerplug-in.sourceforge.net/
Description: mplayer plug-in for Mozilla
I've used it with no problem. However the odd site it wont play real
audio files from. Probably because from what I can tell it is looking
for the realone player which is also masked:
* media-video/realone [ Masked ]
Latest version available: 1
Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ]

Without the crossover plugin you can get quicktime working with wine.
However it's performance might be variable.
