Allow me to jump into this => disclosing my conclusions about playing HTML5
video content by WebKit on MacOsX:
1. *AVFoundation *is used as primo-player (by default)
2. *QTKit *is used as a fallback in case something wrong happens with *
AVFoundation *(missing or broken by /System/Library)
Investigations have been led by both :
- temporarily removing /System/Library/Frameworks/AVFoundation...
- at your own risk, remain cautious
- putting traces in *MediaPlayerPrivateAVFoundation.mm *constructor +
play
- traces oberved at runtime
- putting traces in *MediaPlayerPrivateAVFoundationCF.cpp *constructor +
play
- not compiled for MAC
- putting traces in *MediaPlayerPrivateQTKit.cpp *constructor + play()
method
- traces observed in case /System/Library/Frameworks/AVFoundation is
damaged or not present

PS: assuming "*runtime never lies*" I expected rather to place breakpoints
across DDD (or even GDB) but gave up:
burdensome binary / libraries ? Execution was too slow, & WebKit didn't
succeed in expressing itself serenely ;-(
