Is there a way to differentiate between hidden media and no media?

Due to copyright restrictions, we need to hide some media for users who are not logged in.

Instead of the media thumbnail, we want to show a message such as “come to the library and watch the media”.

My developer says that when a media is hidden, there is no positive indication that the media is hidden and Omeka-S is just not displaying the thumbnail.

My question - is there a positive indication in the model that he can use in order to see if the media is hidden? Or do we have to add a field to the resource template to indicate that the media cannot be shown?

Thanks,

To clarify (I am the developper :cowboy_hat_face:) - when a media item is marked as private - there is no indication it exists when the viewer is not logged in. So we can not post an indication that it exists but is private. Is there a way to do that?
