Do you mean something that will link a specific coordinate to a specific frame in the video? I don't believe that there's ever been any data point to do that.

You would have to use some timestamp to associate the metadata with a specific video frame.

Hi,
I look at frame id because, my software uses opencv to get image from mp4 and in this case the only ID I can have is frame ID, there is no way t get a timestamp coming form underlying API.

It seems as if I'm stating the obvious here, but if you know the frame ID and the frame rate, then you know the time since the start of the video.

I can't be more specific without knowing what device we're talking about.
