No Sound from cameras when auto cycling through in app.

[avi6581]

Hi

im not sure if this is a config issue or something I might have to ask support about.

i have an old android phone permenently showing a cycle of a camera group. I have this by the front door, and it's great. When it senses motion it prioritises the door cam so I can see outside and the rest of the time it flicks between a few outside cameras. However.. I cannot hear the sound from the cameras mic when it stops in the camera that is sensing motion.

if I go directly to the camera in the app ( ie.. Not all cameras cycle) I can hear the sound.

anyone any ideas ? I suspect it might be one of those things that not many people have tried and it might be something I have to mail Ken about.

cheers.

Avi

blue iris options >cameras automatically play live audio from selected cameras
this should play the live audio while its cycling...i dont believe there is a way to only play live audio for the camera that its prioritizing...

Cheers, I have that set. I'm assuming it's because its technically viewing a webcast group in the app. Looks like an email to support, as it would be really useful in my particular set up.

thanks

Has anyone figured this out? I am trying to use BI as a baby monitor and have the cameras cycle through a group with audio being broadcasted as well. I cant find a way to make this work. I tried the above suggestion and it didn't seem to work.
Thanks

Does this statement...

with audio being broadcasted as well

mean this?

Thanks. I thought that was it but it was already ticked. I can get the audio to work when I have the group selected (left photo) but when I have it on cycle (right photo) you can see that there is no option to activate the audio. Any ideas?

This may be a bug with the Android app.
I just tested it on the iOS app and the speaker icon is enabled.

 

[hoggin]

So what would the next step be? Contact BI in hopes of some sort of resolution? Thoughts?
