C++ Advice

Question

I am a student at university and need some advice on how to approach a issue, I am making a virtual Bronchoscopy device using a optical mouse sensor to track the bronchoscope. I intend to have this video - http://www.european-lung-foundation.org/157-european-lung-foundation-elf-movies.htm - Fly through the airwaves. I have acquired some code from the university that uses the interception library located here - http://oblita.com/interception.html

The code now works by implementing a open gl window with a pole that moves when something passes the mouse sensor. But I was wondering, can this interception library work with video rather than this open gl window? Such as when the bronchosope passes in front of the sensor the video will move forward until the scope has stopped, then when the scope is moved backward, the video will go back etc. Any advice out there on how to approach this?
Thank you.
