I tried using the set_nsobject() method for vlc.MediaPlayer in the python-ctypes bindings (not MediaControl) to pass it an nsview from PyQt4. I’m not sure if I’m doing it wrong, or if it’s just not possible.

The object minimal_macosx expects is of kind NSObject and should
respect the protocol:

@protocol VLCOpenGLVoutEmbedding
- (void)addVoutSubview:(NSView *)view;
- (void)removeVoutSubview:(NSView *)view;

- (void)enterFullscreen;
- (void)leaveFullscreen;

- (BOOL)stretchesVideo;
- (void)setOnTop: (BOOL)ontop; /* Do we really want that in protocol? */
@end

You can find a live example in VLCVideoView in VLCKit.framework.

So you'll have to build this custom Object.
