Bug Description

Gloobus previewer should be able to play mov files, that is a quite common container. Here is an interesting "fact", you can play a .mov file in Gloobus preview by changing the extension to a supported format. For example, video1.mov is shown as a thumbnail in Gloobus, but if you change it to video1.mp4 or else it will play without trouble.
