Both crash on my end (official Debian mozilla-mplayer package 3.55-1.1)
without the patch.
Both play with the patch applied (I applied the patch to the Debian
package source code).

I was not aware of it. I was rather happy with mplayerplug-in. Is it dead?

Debian has gecko-mediaplayer  0.9.5-1 and it plays both trailers. Is
there a way to cache the whole clip before playback? my connection is
rather flaky when it comes to streaming video.

Looks like it's time to switch...

Thanks,
