<p>Setting volume above 1.0 can be very useful if the original is too quiet. For example, Quicktime allows a volume of 300% to amplify quiet tracks</p>

This would make volume even more special, as a float that reflects as an integer percentage. Just using the existing definition for reflecting a float would be simpler.<p><font color="#500050"><br><br>>> So, I am neither in favor or against of reflecting volume and mute as<br>

I'd be fine with reflecting muted if many people think it would be useful. I'm not the one to make that judgment though.<br>

Volume isn't a huge problem, just not as trivial as one might suspect. Another thing to consider is that it is currently impossible to set volume to a value outside the range [0,1] via the DOM API. With a content attribute, volume="-1" and volume="1.1" would need to be handled too. I'd prefer it being ignored rather than being clamped.<p>
