For something more data demanding, e.g. a video player, do you have to copy every frame from C++ world to QML/JavaScript in order to display it?

No, you'd use something like libmpv and tell it to which rectangle render the video.

It's possible to implement custom QQuickItems that you render in C++, and are displayed within your QML somewhere.

I never dealt with video, so I don't know, but I assume there are Qt Quick components for this?[1]

This really depends on the target platform , Qt version you are using. To put things into perspective, With Gstreamer/QML, we've had smooth 1080p30 fps on measly imx6ul hardware, thanks to zero copy pipelines.
