### setHideVideoMuted

* **setHideVideoMuted**(`value`): `Promise<void>`

Show or hide muted videos in the room layout. Members that have been muted via [videoMute](/docs/browser-sdk/v3/js/reference/video/room-session/video-mute) will not appear in the video stream, instead of appearing as a mute image, if this setting is enabled.

Muted videos are shown by default.

#### Parameters

<ParamField path="value" type="boolean">
  Whether to hide muted videos in the room layout.
</ParamField>

#### Returns

`Promise<void>`

#### Permissions

* `room.hide_video_muted`
* `room.show_video_muted`

You need to specify the permissions when [creating the Video Room Token](/docs/apis/video/room-tokens/create-room-token) on the server side.

#### Example

```javascript
await roomSession.setHideVideoMuted(false);
```
