VLC to Quartz Composer (using Syphon)

Hey,

I'm trying to make a Mac app that plays a videostream using VLCKit and then outputs it as a Syphon server so that Quartz Composer can read it in. One problem I'm running into is that VLCMediaPlayer draws the video in an NSView and I can't get at it from there.

What's the easiest way to get the video data to publish onwards?

I see that there are some methods in libvlc that might help but VLCKit does not include vlc.h? How do I fix that?

Thanks,
Alper
