I found a possible - but complicated - work around which I'm currently trying... if you're interested in the technical details see this archived blog post. I'll let you know if that works (I have my doubts), but even if it works I would provide the solution in the form of "alternative Qt DLLs", not as a replacement of the official ones  . Wow, I'm surprised, it actually works  !

@Shideravan: Please download http://qmc2.arcadehits.net/Win32/qmc2-alt-qtwebkit-x64.zip and unzip the two contained DLLs into the QMC2 installation folder, replacing the existing QtWebKit4.dll (keep a backup just in case). It works for me in that it shows the video canvas, but I don't have working codecs installed in that VM so it wouldn't play the video snaps...

I've updated the above file to also include a corresponding media-service plugin for DirectShow. At least this avoids the "missing service" warning, but I still can't test it.

I just tried this page with the modified QtWebKit and QMC2's MiniWebBrowser, which basically works now: http://camendesign.com/code/video_for_everybody/test.html - but when I close the browser, QMC2 seems to hang somehow. Could be a local issue since my DirectX installation is corrupt, but I'm beginning to get my doubts again .

I'm testing here, with official build 0.55 and using the DLL pack that you provided. Now the video canvas shows up for me too. But QMC2 immediately freezes if you press the "play" button.

Yeah, that's the same issue here... dunno if I can "fix" this.

Please re-download the file and try the updated DLLs! I've reverted some of the patches I had used, this appears to perform better now. Still no guarantee, though .

René, I tried the new DLLs which you provided. At first glance, with the original "default" template, it had the same problem. However, I edited default template, just changing
if ( "$VIDEO_SNAP_URL$" != "" )
document.write("<td width=\"33%\" valign=\"center\" align=\"center\"><video " + dropShadow() + "width=\"100%\" loop controls poster=\"$GHOST_VIDEO$\" src=\"$VIDEO_SNAP_URL$\"></video></td>");
to something based in the new JS-code version which is in the wiki
var vsUrls = qmc2NEO.videoSnapUrls("$ID$");
if ( vsUrls.length > 0 )
{
document.write("<h4>" + tr("Video snaps") + "</h4>");
document.write("<td width=\"1%\" valign=\"center\" align=\"center\"><video controls loop autoplay>");
for (var i = 0; i < vsUrls.length; i++)
document.write("<source src=\"" + vsUrls[i] + "\" />");
document.write("</video>");
}
and it worked

Well, but I have to say that it's have some "instability". I noticed that QMC2 can hang ramdomily if you scroll between systems.
One way to avoid a lot of trouble is just don't using "controls" in video options. I'm now using only "autoplay".
I'm testing extensively to see some ways to avoid hangs to implement video snap support in the alternative templates in experimental basis.
