unviewable
Hidden from sight
Unviewable describes something that cannot be seen or watched.
A video file might be unviewable because it's corrupted, in an incompatible format, or blocked by regional restrictions: The footage was so degraded it was unviewable.
Content may also be unviewable in a qualitative sense—so poorly made or disturbing that watching becomes unbearable: The shaky camerawork made the film nearly unviewable.
