I don't have any experience with this myself, so I don't know for sure,
but I think it might be possible to do this using SMIL. The following
links might be useful:

<http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/>;
<http://developer.apple.com/referencelibrary/QuickTime/idxScripting-date
.html>
<http://developer.apple.com/cgi-bin/search.pl?q=SMIL&;site=(quicktime)>

I hope this helps.
