..."iChat Theater

iChat Theater allows applications to present audio and video content during an 
iChat 
conference. For example, your application can present a slide show, a video 
feed, or even 3D 
graphics, complete with sound, to one or more conference participants. This is 
made 
possible through the IMAVManager class at the heart of iChat Theater. It 
encapsulates some 
of iChat's most advanced features in an Objective-C class.

IMAVManager works with the other classes in the Instant Message framework to 
enable you 
to build sophisticated conferencing capabilities into your application. For 
example, you can 
use IMService to determine who is available to participate in a chat, and then 
use 
IMAVManager to setup and run the iChat Theater presentation.

iChat Theater also leverages existing Mac OS X technologies under the hood, 
such as Core 
Video for video rendering and Core Audio for processing audio data, while 
providing a simple 
programming interface for most rendering tasks."
