QuickTime 4 Reference

Preparing an Effect for Direct Execution

The code that prepares the data structures required to directly execute an effect is broadly similar to the code to set up effects within a QuickTime movie.

You first provide an effect description and sample description for the effect component you are going to use. Then you prepare a decompression sequence that will actually playback the effect.
