    <thetext>http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/video.html#attr-media-muted currently just states &quot;The muted attribute on the video element controls the default state of the audio channel of the media resource, potentially overriding user preferences.&quot;

That doesn&apos;t give any information about what datatype the muted content attribute is. 

For other other boolean content attributes, the spec explicitly states that they are boolean; for example:

http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/video.html#attr-media-loop
&quot;The loop attribute is a boolean attribute that, if specified, indicates that the media element is to seek back to the start of the media resource upon reaching the end.&quot;

So the definition of the muted content attribute should use similar language; e.g.:

&quot;The muted attribute on the video element is a boolean attribute that controls the default state of the audio channel of the media resource, potentially overriding user preferences.&quot;</thetext>
