Hey there Tor Arne, thanks for taking the time to look this patch over.
I will say in advance, that I'm working on an updated patch - It should be much
smaller and elegant, it won't have that QPainterVideoSurface dependency that
we've added, and it will keep platform specific optimisations in QtMultimedia
instead of Webkit.

Connection is timing out. I'll try it again later.

Doesn't work for me either. I'll investigate.

I've spent quite some time trying to get youtube/html5 to work. I am yet to
have success, and I am extremely suspicious that youtube is serving only to
specific user agents.

Seems like you may have stumbled over an issue without our QuickTime backend.
I'll try and investigate. Vimeo has been a difficult one to test, as the flash
plugin I have on my workstation has a propensity for segfaults when browsing
Vimeo.
