Getting video frames to call void ofImage_::drawSubsection

I am looking at trying to load in a video and get the frames so I can use them in a vector of ofImage. I want to be able to play back a section of the video by calling drawSubsection(). I would want to play back multiple sections from multiple videos eventually.

So far I have this. This plays back the video fine if I call player.draw(...);. But calling any part of the sequence vector to draw with drawSubsection shows a rectangle in the correct dimensions but a blank black rectangle.

                ofVideoPlayer player;
                vector <ofImage> sequence;
    //
            player.setPixelFormat(OF_PIXELS_RGB);
                player.load("back2.MOV");
                player.setLoopState(OF_LOOP_NORMAL);

                for(int i= 0;i < player.getTotalNumFrames();i++ )
                {
                    player.nextFrame();
                    ofImage image;
                    image.allocate(player.getWidth(), player.getHeight(), OF_IMAGE_COLOR);
                    image.setFromPixels(player.getPixels());
                    sequence.push_back(image);
                }
            }
        //IN DRAW
            void ofApp::draw(){

                for (int i = 0; i < sequence.size(); i++){

                    sequence[0].drawSubsection(50, 100, 100, 100, 0, 0);

                }

Any advice would be great!
