586 Appendix A Command Reference
Class Data island packet generator
Description Enables and disables the HDMI Audio/Video Mute (AVMUTE) feature. When enabled,
audio and video are muted by the generator.
Important: You can set either the AVMUTE set flag (to turn mute on) or the AVMUTE clear
flag (to turn mute off) to 1 (but not both).
Note: The status of the mute is changed only after the packet is gated ON (DPTG), the
repeat mode has been set (DPTR), and the hardware has been updated (DPGU) (see
example below).
