I am following this discussion, but my app does not have any problem at all. It works now, as it worked before. I use lots of Flash and find everything working as expected. I use no plugins, only pure Rb. I only noticed that QuickTime 7.1.3 is a bit slower than I was used to.

So, something is weird -- why do we have Flash 9 support if operating under WebKit, but only Flash 5 support under QuickTime.

utterly different code bases. Flash under webkit is just another plugin. I bet Apple don't even write the plugin code.

My pet theories are licensing disagreements or general malaise at Apple (they have also pretty much neglected QuickTime interactive support).

I can't speak for the current QuickTime but a few versions ago, when I was writing movie handlers, I know that the engineers would confess to some parts of the Quicktime source being truly terrifying code ;-)

As I understand it, the Flash support in QuickTime is essentially reverse-engineered. I think you will find it works without any Flash plugins installed on your system.
