I got a similar crash when opening BBC Radio 2: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio2.shtml

I don't know if it is the same bug or not.

Using Ubuntu 8.04 up-to-date (March 11, 2008 - 6.00pm GMT+1) and Firefox 3b3

comment from upstream:

"It was a problem in shared-mime-info, detecting the playlist as SMIL instead of
a QuickTime media link.

2008-08-19 Bastien Nocera <email address hidden>

        * freedesktop.org.xml.in: Fix priority of the SMIL detection
        so it's lower than that of SMILtext media links (See
        http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=518688#c4)
        * tests/hbo-playlist.qtl: Add a test file for the above
        * tests/list:

Note that the warning was already gone in trunk before that bug fix.
