Mute for SDL_Mixer

SDL Development
1

I want to implement Mute functionality in my framework. I haven’t found
anything that does it in SDL_Mixer.

  • Setting the music and channels volume to 0 has the problem that I lose the
    previous volume of the channels and music when I want to unmute.

  • Mix_PauseChannel and Mix_PauseMusic don’t have the volume problem, but its
    effect is similar to a PAUSE button, not to a MUTE button.

What’s the canonical/easiest way to implement mute in SDL_Mixer?

Save the volume(s), set it to zero while muted, then set back to
previous value(s) when unmuted?
