Core Video Tasks

This chapter describes some common programming tasks used when processing Core Video. The examples in this chapter are written in Objective-C and use Cocoa, but Core Video can be used in a Carbon program as well.

In most cases, you will want to use the display link to access individual video frames. If your application is involved in generating the actual video frames (for example, if you’re writing a video compressor or creating animated images), you should consider using Core Video buffers to hold your frame data.
