Videobuffer general help

Looking for someone to give me a bit of conceptual help and tips on general API set-up.

 

I would like to go down the route of managing a frame/video buffer in C++, then pushing that over to Flash for rendering.  I've been trying to follow how it's done in Quake, I've gotten so far (setting up a BitmapData/ByteArray in AS3, then using an update method to pull in something from C) - but I'm not seeing any results. 

 

I think I'm quite possibly missing something fundamental with getting the data back over intto AS3.  At the moment it seems like I'm just pushing a pointer address over, and actionscript isn't really doing anything useful. 

 

I can provide specific code if needed.

 

Cheers.
