With wordless media turned on, the quiet parts of your recording show up in the script as editable text. You can [correct](/script-editing/correct-your-transcript), copy-paste, [delete, or ignore](/script-editing/delete-vs-ignore) them like words, and the underlying video or audio changes to match. **Wordless media is disabled by default** Example of wordless media in the script ## Show or hide wordless media in a specific project 1.
