If we have a newFrame event, might it be an idea to actually hand over the
frame data (audio + video) in the event? I would think that only ppl that
want to do manipulations on the media data want to have that kind of
resolution and it might be more efficient to just provide the data with the
event?

Incidentally: What use case did you have in mind, Biju?
