Disable forward seek is an effective way to encourage the viewer to watch the full video. By enabling this feature, you are removing their ability to skip ahead in the video. When they try to skip ahead in the timeline, a small notification appears telling them that skipping is disabled.

This setting is found under the Theme Settings >> Player Settings >> Advanced Options >> Disable Forward Seek
