I do I go about using Quicktime and an NSImage together? Specifically, I would like to use the Quicktime scaling functions instead of the NSImage scaling functions since the Quicktime functions seem to provide much better results.

  I've heard elsewhere that QuickTime does a better job at this kind of thing. NSMovie is a pretty lean class, and by the looks of it i think you would have to create an instance of NSImage using initWithContentsOfURL: in conjunction with NSMovie's -URL method.
  
  So something like this:
  
  NSImage *image = [[NSImage alloc] initWithURL:[movie URL]];
  
  Does that help with your question?
