When enabled, Users will hear the audio content but won't be able to view the video within the Chapters. This is useful for a focus on auditory learning, without the need to create separate media files for streaming.

This option proved to be very problematic as Social Media Platforms would not display the chapter, or video in any way, but merely a link to a Chapter/Page that others on the Social Media Platform couldn't view; creating a lot of confusion and frustration. A much better option is enabling the Social Sharing links that float on the left side of every screen and link to a pre-defined URL. [Learn how to enable and configure those in the Private Label Management.](https://support.lightspeedvt.com/docs/private-label-management#social-media-settings)
