Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out to the Community and welcome!

 

Currently, there isn't an option to completely disable video on Podcasts. On mobile devices, you can go to Settings and enable the option 'Audio-only streaming for video podcasts' but this will only work when you're not using WiFi. If you're using a WiFi network, the video will automatically play. If you don't want to watch the video, you can minimize the app on your device, lock the screen, or download the episodes and listen to them while offline mode is on (make sure you also enable the option 'Audio-only downloads for video podcasts' from your Settings).

 

Now, it seems other users feel the same way, and a few ideas to add the feature to turn off video on Podcasts have already been suggested here and here - feel free to add your vote to them!

 

The Idea Exchange is a great way for us to see what our users are interested in and how many people like a certain idea. Check out this FAQ to learn more about it. 

 

If you need a hand with anything else, we're always a post away!
