Patch 

Not really a bug in gstreamer but it can be fixed in it.

apple.com/trailers section as of Aug 21st, 2009 will redirect any http request
from the video back to apple.com/trailers. It is just checking the http user
agent and will only server the video if it identifies as QuickTime. This is
annoying but easy to work around.

I have attached a patch that should work around the problem.
