Converting a PicHandle to format for use with imageData

[Thierry Arbellot]

Hi Trevor,

Apple gives a sample code on how to get a video frame from a QT movie  
and draw it into a GWorld.
Then you can copy the PixMap of this GWorld directly into the imageData  
of an image object.

VideoFrameToGWorld.htm

Hope it helps.

Thierry.
