Configuration > Spider > Crawl > Media

You can choose to store and crawl media files independently. Enabling both will mean files in <video> and <audio> elements will be crawled.

For example:

<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>

Unticking the ‘store’ configuration will mean files in video and audio elements will not be stored and will not appear within the SEO Spider.

Unticking the ‘crawl’ configuration will mean in video and audio elements will not be crawled to check their response code.
