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. :/
