Hello Everyone,

I am after the following functionality in an app I am scoping. A user has the option to enter some set of text that will be overlaid onto a video file as animated text. In other words, the application is bundled with a stock version of the video containing no text, and the custom text entered by the user is used to render a new video to some location. That resulting video contains various animated instances of the custom text.

My question is simply, what would be a good path to go down in order to accomplish this using Cocoa on OS X 10.6? I know there is Core Animation, QT, Quartz, and Core Video, but I'm unsure of what combination of these frameworks to use and generally how to go about this.

Thanks
