# How Wellio's YouTube Embeds Work (Vlite)

## To keep classroom content safe and distraction-free, Wellio uses Vlite to restrict how YouTube videos appear inside lessons. This ensures students only see the parts of the video intended.

### What is Vlite?

Vlite is a secure video player integration that allows us to define a specific playback range for YouTube videos, and hide everything else. This means:

- **Locked playback** - only the selected segment can be viewed
- **No ads** - we’ve removed all YouTube overlays and distractions
- **No skipping or clicking around** - teachers can’t jump ahead or rewind

### What Teachers Need to Know

When playing an embedded video:

- You can press **play** and **pause**
- You **cannot go forward** **or back**
- The video will **reset to the start** of the allowed segment if you refresh or revisit the slide

### What a YouTube video with Vlite looks like:
