Details

&muteall adds a top-bar button in the director control room for muting or unmuting all connected guests at once.

The button uses the same remote guest mute path as each guest's individual Mute button in the director UI. When active, newly joining guests are also muted once their director control box is created.

Limitations

This option is URL gated. If &muteall, &muteallguests, or &muteguests is not added to the director URL, the button stays hidden and the app behaves as it normally does.

The global mute state is live browser state. It is not a room-level saved setting, and it starts inactive again if the director page is refreshed.

Manual per-guest changes are still allowed. If a director manually unmutes one guest while the global mute-all button remains active, that guest stays unmuted until another global mute-all action or another audio-follow action changes them. New guests will still be muted while the global mute-all state is active.

If &highlightmute / Mute follows Highlight is also active, Highlight can still unmute the highlighted guest. In that combination, &muteall is not an absolute lockout.

The button targets normal guest audio controls only. It skips directors, screen-share entries, pseudo-guests, and guests that do not yet have a director mute control available.
