Description

In https://github.com/dalecurtis/video-animation-frame/blob/master/explainer.md @dalecurtis is proposing, and has prototyped, a requestAnimationFrame callback on video elements. This seems to work well for applications that want to update at the video's frame rate.

In that proposal a VideoFrameMetadata dictionary is being proposed. It would be ideal to synchronize the WEBGL_video_texture proposal with that one, and ideally, just refer to that VideoFrameMetadata dictionary if that API moves forward in the standards process.

Research direction

Start by reading the linked video-animation-frame explainer.md and the WEBGL_video_texture proposal to compare their proposed metadata. Done means the WebGL proposal is synchronized with the HTMLVideoElement.requestAnimationFrame proposal and can refer to VideoFrameMetadata if that API advances.
