Thought you were talking about YouTube (which was added to fw2), not
Quicktime.
Anyway, what I said is still available.

About rotation, this is a limitation of the full screen mode. You
should report this to Apple (http://bugreporter.apple.com/).
But I suggest you to go deeper into XHTML/JS/DOM so that you can
properly use full screen mode.

You can check WebApp.Net demo (http://webapp.net.free.fr/Demo/) and
see that there is no problem using something else than the very bad
<embed> tag.
