Java script for MUTE/UNMUTE audio in Storyline 3

Hello All, Is it possible to MUTE/UNMUTE audio in Storyline 3 (HTML5 output)? I'm working on a course with a custom interface with a button that's supposed to mute/unmute - not pause/play or stop/...

Hi Akash,

Use below code with condition this will work:

if (document.location.href.indexOf('html5') < 0) {
var player = GetPlayer();
player.SetVar("muteToggle",true);
} else {
var appState = require("helpers/appState");
appState.onToggleVolume();//mute
}

I am using this in my current course and this is working with me.

    Hello Vishal,

    Is there a way perhaps to visually show the learner when mute is on or off?  Perhaps an icon in a green colour for on and red for off?

    Many thanks 

    Nicole

      Hi Nicole,

      You can create a toggle mute/unmute button and give on that button.

      It works.

    Can this code be used as is to toggle the audio mute/unmute?

    if (document.location.href.indexOf('html5') < 0) {
    var player = GetPlayer();
    player.SetVar("muteToggle",true);
    } else {
    var appState = require("helpers/appState");
    appState.onToggleVolume();//mute
    }
