yes, it should. I debugged why it wasn't, problem was a double prepend 
of absRefPrefix.

this seems to be a bug in QTobject JS-script, i check why. This works in 
SFWobject without any problems.

BTW - little TS manipulation allows to use the RTE as normal text, so 
result is a Text/media element, for alternativ content there could be a 
general TS lib-object.

this is a problem of quicktime player. As flash always resize player + 
movie, quicktime doesn't and only shows a crop. Play with width and 
height until you have film and control visible.

I didn't, so i check this too.

Thx for testing, i wait for some other comments until posting updated patch.
