<video muted="true"> does not work

<video autoplay muted='true'></video>

This seems not to work as there is audio (it should be muted). IMHO the following could be the reason:

 attachMediaStream = function (element, stream) {
      stream.enableSoundTracks(true);

The point is, how to mute or change the volume of the "video" / "object" element? which API is implemented?

Current state:

• mute(d) is not supported by the plugin
• the only way to turn the sound on and off is with stream.enableSoundTrack.
• Or maybe setting stream.getAudioTracks()[0].enabled = false;

What would be nice:

 attachMediaStream = function (element, stream) {
      stream.enableSoundTracks(element.muted);

But since the plugin does not support element.muted, that would set the sound off for a lot of people who will not think of using stream.enableSoundTracks(true);.
This means that I will first have to implement the muted API.
I need to do a check of feasibility first.

Clear, thanks a lot.

Hello.

What is the current state of muted API? Is there a chance that it will be implemented any time soon or should we stiil use stream manipulation?

Kind of crazy how you get a stream from remote and the audio starts playing before you even render it to the DOM with the plugin, not sure if this is related to this ticket or not. I think the audio should be off by default until it gets rendered.

Also related, stream.enableSoundTracks(false) does not mute the audio, there seems to be no way to turn audio off
