I do not think it should be a separate function, and I do not think it makes it clearer than having it
under the media type where it belongs.

I respectfully disagree.

If it gets set for anything but a video stream, then it is wrong, and a bug. "Attached Pic" on anything
but video is hilariously stupid.

Dropped the is_ locally.
