Professional level digital image processing plugin for Adobe Photoshop and Elements. Leveraging DataMind’s proprietary state-of-the-art algorithms, Beryl is a Photoshop plugin that automatically removes the red-eye effect from digital photos. The 'Installing or updating QuickTime' link it has 'Go to the Apple QuickTime download webpage' and you can download QuickTime and when QuickTime is installed, QuickTime's browser plugin is enabled by default and should work in Firefox. You can disable or enable the browser plugin in the Firefox Add-ons Manager. Anyway i am glad you solve it.
Installation
Important: QuickTime 7.1.x is currently on the Add-ons Blocklist and does not work in Firefox 3.
Another option is the unofficial QuickTime Alternative (but read this for important information).
If you are installing Quicktime Alternative, make sure that the 'Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape/Opera Plugin' is checked when selecting which components to install.

Updating QuickTime
If your version of QuickTime doesn't include an 'Update Existing Software' feature or if the new version isn't offered this way, you can install the new QuickTime version 'over the top' of your current installation. This will automatically replace the old version with the new one.
You can verify the QuickTime version your Mozilla browser is detecting in about:plugins or, starting in Firefox 3 and SeaMonkey 2, in 'Tools -> Add-ons (Add-on Manager) -> Plugins'.

QuickTime browser settings
In Windows XP and below you can configure the MIME types that the QuickTime plugin will handle in QuickTime Preferences. The MIME types selected will be listed under the QuickTime plugin in about:plugins and both downloaded files and embedded content with those MIME types will be handled by the QuickTime plugin. Starting in Windows Vista, QuickTime preferences no longer include configurable MIME settings for the browser plugin; only file extensions associated with the QuickTime application can be changed. [1][2]
As an alternative, you can prevent downloaded files from opening in the QuickTime plugin by changing your (Helper) Application settings (see File types and download actions for details). However, the browser plugin will still be used for QuickTime content embedded in web pages based on the MIME types shown in the about:plugins list. In Firefox 3 or SeaMonkey 2 and above, you can also disable the plugin in the Add-on Manager Plugins list if you don't want the QuickTime plugin to handle embedded content.
Configuring QuickTime MIME Types
The following applies to Windows XP and below.
This is where you enable the QuickTime browser plugins for different types of media. (Don't go to the File Types preferences by mistake; those are for Windows file associations.)
Close and reopen the browser to effect the changes.
Suggested MIME Types:
Audio
MPEG

MP3
Images
Important: When selecting the media types you want QuickTime to handle under MIME Types, do not select 'Flash media', if present, as this will cause a conflict with the Flash plugin. Note that, as of QuickTime 7.3.1, the Flash media handler has been disabled and 'Flash media' should no longer be listed. [3]
Resetting the QuickTime browser plugins
Sometimes the QuickTime plugins are not detected properly, even though you have selected the right media types in the QuickTime browser settings, as described above. You may receive the error, QuickTime Unavailable. The QuickTime Plug-in requires the QuickTime System extension version 5 or later. If you enter about:plugins in the address bar, you may also see plugins listed from different versions of QuickTime [4] or other inconsistencies. To reset your QuickTime browser plugins: [5]

Quicktime Web Plugin
For some reason, QuickTime plugin is not listed in the plugins list but is still available to Firefox when clicked to activate. Don't really know why this is. If you are not seeing it appear when you search for it in the Add-Ons Manager, you may not have the plugin installed and available in the Finder (Library/Internet Plugins folder). Somebody please correct me if Firefox stores a copy of the QuickTime plugin elsewhere.
