No (un)mute button on mobile devices.

Hi there Webbywebbuilders,

Is the following a bug from webbuilder or a new policy from YouTube?

Recently I've noticed that all the (un)mute buttons are gone in the YouTube player when viewed in 320 or 480.

Most of my videos are in autoplay mode with the mute parameter on.

So when someone wants to turn on the sound of the video that's already playing, they can't, because there's no mute button.

Thnx :-)

YouTube functionality is implement by YouTube.
Web Builder has no control this.

Only YouTube can change this behavior.

I think I have found a way to create a mute button:

It would be great if this could be implemented in the YouTube extension :-)
