Displaying video frames through st.empty() is not working on Google Colab

Using Streamlit
1

I have a simple code that reads video stream from youtube for processing with OpenCV. I want to display these video frames with st.empty(). On localhost it works fine, but when I run same code in Google Colab, only first frame is shown and then the video freezes. Is there some workaround? Thanks.

Here is my code

class ThreadedCamera(object):
    def __init__(self, src=0):
        self.capture = cv2.VideoCapture(src)
        self.capture.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_BUFFERSIZE, 2)

        # FPS = 1/X
        # X = desired FPS
        self.FPS = 1/30
        self.FPS_MS = int(self.FPS * 1000)

        # Start frame retrieval thread
        self.thread = Thread(target=self.update, args=())
        self.thread.daemon = True
        self.thread.start()

    def update(self):
        while True:
            if self.capture.isOpened():
                (self.status, self.frame) = self.capture.read()
            time.sleep(self.FPS)

    def show_frame(self):
        cv2.imshow('frame', self.frame)
        cv2.waitKey(self.FPS_MS)
