By doesn't turn off camera you mean the light next to your webcam?

Sorry, what I meant is: do you and the other side still see the video from the camera?

The other side cannot see the video, but the camera is powered on and the green LED is on, which is scary. I can repro every time i hit the video mute button.

This is probably also due to https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=642785

That sounds like it only talks about the light - not the camera actually recording

I don't think it's a browser bug, as Jitsi doesn't do this in the same browser/machine.

I just hit the same issue. It looks like the mic indicator on macOs is also shown when muted.

Per @kegsay's comment this needs re-investigation
