Not sure if you're still looking, but I have the solution.  There's an icon in the upper right wen you're viewing your video.  Pause at the frame you want, then selection that icon to set frame for your file image.

    Just came here with the same issue. It seems that the "Set frame as thumbnail" option appears only when the video is sent into "Replay" for live review, not on the standard Dropbox preview link. It seems like choosing a poster frame should be an option in any Dropbox video preview.
