There's a pull request that would fix this issue at h5p/h5p-link#19

Oh wow. That was submitted three years ago and still has not been merged.
Anyway, I was wondering why this issue only happens with the image while Navigation Hotspot and URL elements are working fine.

I created a ticket at https://h5ptechnology.atlassian.net/browse/HFP-3848 to draw the product owner's attention to this.

It's only happening here, because the "Navigation Hotspot" subcontent type is using a different approach for the URL generation than the plain "Go To" mechanism built into Interactive Video.
