If you don't want to jQuery, here's the vanilla JavaScript:

///Mute
var video = document.getElementById("your-video-id");
video.muted= true;

//Unmute
var video = document.getElementById("your-video-id");
video.muted= false;

It will work for audio too, just put the element's id and it will work (and change the var name if you want, to 'media' or something suited for both audio/video as you like).
