No. Those amiga players are just old and outdated.
I'm using mplayer on MorphOS, and I can watch almost all clips (except wmv). Source code for mplayer is freely available, but I'm afraid classic doesn't have the horsepower.
Even my PC's CPU usage is pretty high when playing high-definition Quicktime trailers with QT7. I imagine even the most upgraded classic Amigas would want to go home and cry rather than play HD content.
Admittedly there are still some non-HD Apple movie trailers, but I imagine Apple will phase those out within a year.
