As I understand the Quicktime documentation loading the file has to
happen on the main thread, which would not solve the problem.   Only
after the file is opened and movie in memory can it be moved to
another thread.  We could add threading to everything else (including
the OpenGL drawing) but that would require pretty extensive changes.

You could load all of your image files into a Quicktime movie and
change the frames of the movie to get the next image.
