Audio and Video configuration is accessed through WP Admin -> PeepSo -> Configuration -> Audio And Video

It is divided into two sections.
The left-hand section contains all the configuration options, while the right-hand section contains useful information for proper setup of the features provided with the plugin.

Configuration Options

Video and Audio panels

Enabling or disabling the Video master switch will completely enable or disable Audio and Video features.
Autoplay on activity stream – when enabled, videos will be auto-played when visible on the activity stream. Unless marked as sensitive (feature must be enabled first in PeepSo -> Configuration -> Moderation -> Sensitive post), the video must be manually clicked in order to play.
Play inline on mobile – When enabled, PeepSo will attempt to force an inline player on mobile devices. The results may vary depending on video providers.
