intel macbook xiph-frameworks-20060508 xiph-qt-full-0.1.5 safari 2.0.4 (419.3) quicktime 7.1.3

I'm not sure where the Safari QuickTime playback actually broke, so I'll explain the full sequence of steps that I took. Admittedly, I misunderstood a few things about XiphQT, but still...

I first installed xiph-qt-full-0.1.5 and immediately got .ogg support in iTunes. Great. But native .flac didn't work even after a restart. (and I didn't know that there is a difference between native and ogg flac) So I read some problem reports in the QiphQT bug tracker and thought I had to install the framework package too. After installing the framework package, .flac still didn't work. Reading XiphQT docs again, I found out about the difference between native and ogg flac. Ok, thanks for the explanation at least.

The real problem: QuickTime support in Safari is now broken. video.google.com worked perfectly before, but now i just get a big QuickTime icon with a superimposed "?" on top. Starting the QuickTime player and manually opening the video URL just results in an error message: "Warning: Invalid web adress" (actually "Varning: webbadress är ogiltig", which is Swedish).

I'm a programmer myself, but I'm totally fresh with Macs, so I'd appreciate help with locating a more detailed error log (assuming there is one).
