I would just stick with QuickTime, but as a media conversion layer. You can always then feed your NSImageView with the appropriate image format (e.g. PNG, TIFF). This will give you the maximum flexibility. After all, as JPEG, BMP, etc. formats continue to evolve, QuickTime will be updated to handle them. Your app then need not change.
FWIW, an app I wrote back in 1993 was baselined against QuickTime version 1.6.1. The app still runs today (although in Classic) and it can now import any of the supported formats as provided by the latest version of QT for Mac OS 9.x.
