Core Video is the video processing model used by QuickTime 7 on Mac OS X. It delivers uncompressed frame data from QuickTime or other video source to the rest of the Quartz technologies in Mac OS X.[1]

Overview

Core Video is the digital video processing pipeline used QuickTime 7 on Mac OS X to interface with the rendering and compositing layers in its graphics model. QuickTime 7 is the first version to fully use the Quartz technologies, and it provides Core Video with decompressed video frames for display.[2]

Core Video can be thought of as the link between a video source and a display context in Quartz 2D. Passing the video frame data as images into Quartz 2D offers all of the advantages available in the Quartz technologies layer, including Core Image filters and OpenGL rendering via Quartz Compositor.[3]
