Add option to include Voice Audio or not #351

In Finalize phase, add an option for including the Voice Audio in the video (or not). Default is on

The option list will then be in this order:

Rationale: By turning this off, the user can produce more of a book video.

Bryan, This option is really not needed at the moment. I would put this as a low priority feature for the following reasons:

  1. Having a book "video" is not entirely satisfactory because it does not allow the reader to read at their own pace (the video moves at the pace of a good reader)
  2. A "book" option should really be coupled with an epub option output, which we don't have and will take some time to create.
  3. Book options can target only smartphones/tablets, not feature phones. Most people in our target audiences still do not own large enough screens to support narration text.

What might be a more appropriate high priority feature to implement at this time would be the option to have or not have fade transitions between slides.
