Thread safe QT playback

Hi all,

QTKit docs say that Quicktime playback is designed to work without
interruption on the main thread. This works fairly well, most of the
time, but I notice occasional glitches in the playback when the
computer is busy, especially when loading web content or reading files
(regardless of what app is currently busy, not necessarily mine). So
I'm considering doing the playback on a secondary thread. Is this a
safe thing to do? Will it improve performance and if so, what's the
recommended design pattern?

Thanks.
Fabian
