However, it seems to me that the group consensus is that "addressing a single frame of a video as an image" will create a *new* resource. It is therefore *NOT* a fragment. It might be possible to create such a resource using a '?' followed by the same syntax of the media fragment URI. It might be possible to use the link header provided by http to provide a (typed) link towards the video resource from which the image comes from. The mime type of this new resource would certainly be image/jpeg for example. The summary is, returning an image frame from a video is not a fragment of this video. Cheers!
