Is this what you're seeing? (from the release notes):

Issue:  When using QuickTime 5, the controller thumb in a player does not
always update properly while a movie is playing. This issue is being
actively investigated with Apple.
Workaround:  Do something that will force the controller to be redrawn: for
example, set the player's showController property to false in a preOpenCard
handler and back to true in an openCard handler, or the reverse with the
alwaysBuffer property.
