It's a great idea to play a video behind the karaoke lyrics. Unfortunately, due to limitations in the pygame library that PyKaraoke uses to provide graphics, it's not possible to do this without a major low-level redesign (we'd have to customize large portions of the video decoding library provided by pygame).
There are similar limitations that make it difficult to provide a scrubber bar. :/ David Holmes Wilson wrote: > Cool. Works great.
