MediaStreamTrack's onmute event handler is called when the mute event is received. Such an event is sent when the track is temporarily not able to send data.
Syntax
track.onmute = muteHandler;
Value
A function to serve as an EventHandler for the mute event. The event handler function receives a single parameter: the event object, which is a simple Event object.
Example
In this example, an onmute handler is established to set the content HTML of an element to display the "muted speaker" Emoji.
myTrack.onmute = function(evt) {
playStateIcon.innerHTML = "F507;";
};
