correct :) mute generally only is used for sound. as emotion just addresses the
different parts of a "media file" - i re-used the mute meaning. it's not
strictly correct. you cant "mute" video in normal english - i used it to be
consistent and simple. maybe "blank" or "no decode" or whatever would be more
correct, but it's simpler and consistent to use mute here.
