Hi Lars, I'm pretty sure that you need a streaming server. QT Broadcaster, as far as I understand it, only records/provides the unicast/multicast, but not an (RTSP) stream, which is what QC needs. This is where the QT/Darwin Streaming server comes in.
Another option would be using the excellent Wirecast app (http://www.telestream.net/wire-cast/overview.htm), which contains an integrated streaming server. Using this setup, I had no problems displaying streaming video (coming from a URL beginning with rtsp://) inside Quartz Composer*. Unfortunately its a tad expensive.
