[SLUG] Quicktime plugin...

Folks,
I was looking at the list of videos that space.com has, the latest ones are
almost all flash (no problem) but has you move back in time the older ones
are quicktime. When I try to open one, Firefox wants to install a plugin to view
it, but all I get for plugins are Win and Apple. I figure I should be
able to see
them under MPlayer, but I am trying to figure out how to get FF to start up
MPlayer when it gets one of these things, here is a example of a URL for
one. It looks like it is flash but as soon as you click on it you get dumped to
the "click here to install pluggin' screen.

javascript: flashvideo_launch('/php/video/player.php?video_id=b010129_sp_warpdrives');
