Description

## Issue or Feature
Hey guys this is probably out of the project's scope but I am trying to draw a video into a node-canvas element. It's easy to do in the front end since you can use the video dom element and listeners. But it's a totally different ballpark when we cant use the web API's. I've been Googling around for a while now, hoping to find a good solution.

Does anyone know if this is doable with certain libraries?

I thought about using FFMPEG and piping the images and doing a drawImage for each frame. But that doesn't sound very efficient.

Thanks!
