title: Quicktime API for C++
body: <p>I'm developing a C++ application that works with mov files. This is the first time I work with the Quicktime API, and it seems there's more than 1 API. What I'm trying to do is extract frames and/or audio from the mov file. The application needs to run on PC, Mac, Linux. </p>
  
  <p>So my questions. </p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Which API do I need to work with?</li>
  <li>Is this API compatible with all 3 end platforms, or do I need to work with different Quicktime APIs for PC, Max, Linux</li>
  </ul>
