RTCView with a mute method

[MehmetKaplan]

Hi @8BallBomBom ,

Is there a method to mute local stream for ONLY myself?

If I mute it as below, then the whole stream is muted and my audio is not sent to the other party.
If I don't mute myself, in my own video view I hear myself.

useEffect(() => {
	if (localStream && localStream.getAudioTracks().length > 0) {
		localStream.getAudioTracks()[0].enabled = false;
	}
}, [localStream]);

Hence I imagine if there can be a method for RTCView so that I can mute the voice only for myself.

...
<SafeAreaView style={{ flex: 1 }}>
<View style={{ flex: 1 }}>
	{
		Platform.OS === "web"
			? <RTCView key={`local-${callRenderValue}`} stream={localStream} style={{ flex: 1 }} />
			: <RTCView key={`local-${callRenderValue}`} streamURL={localStream ? localStream.toURL() : undefined} style={{ flex: 1 }} />
	}
</View>
<View style={{ flex: 1 }}>
	{
		Platform.OS === "web"
			? <RTCView key={`remote-${callRenderValue}`} stream={remoteStream ? (remoteStream.toURL ? remoteStream.toURL() : remoteStream) : undefined} style={{ flex: 1 }} />
			: <RTCView key={`remote-${callRenderValue}`} streamURL={remoteStream ? (remoteStream.toURL ? remoteStream.toURL() : remoteStream) : undefined} style={{ flex: 1 }} />
	}
</View>
<View style={{ flexDirection: "row", justifyContent: "space-around" }}>
	<Button title="End Call" onPress={endCall} />
</View>

You should be able to pass the muted boolean prop over to the local web RTCView 🤔
Disabling the audio track itself would indeed create the result of muting that track on both sides, don't do that 😅

That worked, I am terribly sorry to bother you for such a primitive subject. 😬

PS: Happy new year. 🌲🥳
