Respectfully, you need to update you recommend list. "EVERY camera that is in my recommended list in this thread that has a speaker and I use it to play a video file:"

I selected the first one on the list and bought and this is what they shipped. I clicked through to the list as I didn't see the ones listed after suited my needs.

Also, to bigredfish, I bought a Dahua and it said two way talk on the box and when you clicked the microphone on the Dahua app, it said, "function not available". I will keep trying...never give up.

I do think it odd that when I send sound specifically selecting the camera as audio output, you would think no sound would occur. But, it bounce to the PC speaker when I specifically specify the camera....hum...you would think it just a dumb stream to the RCA jack, not bounce to the PC.

If the box said "speaker" you bought a different camera than you said you did earlier. Or you got a repackaged box

lets see the box

Hi, I am back. Your last post is read and digested. What seems to be the issue that can be solved by you is just give me a camera that you know works with BI for sending .wav files. This is a short driveway use case. 90+ degrees is great, spot light great, AI on car and face would be great but not absolutely necessary (I just like the tech). If you know of a camera and it still won't work, I have an environmental issue. Budget dollars...I don't need a $500 camera for this.

From reading a lot of posts, 2-4MP with a sensor large enough to accomplish some low light (but the spot light should be fine for this 25 ft distance late at night). I am using just a small zone, ~20ft out and ~80 degrees FOV.

When I went to multiple links on Amazon, my preferred source and yours, is that links said the camera was no longer available.

Thanks in advance....

These from the list that I have previously provided are under $500 and work and are in stock:

  • 4K/X bullet - anything within 20 feet of the camera OR as an overview camera. The turret versions have a mic and the 4K/X bullet has two-way audio. These cameras need light and cannot see infrared. Keep in mind the larger sensor does mean the camera has a more shallow focus and has a definite sweet spot for focus and anything closer or further away will be a little soft. It is why most use it as an overview camera to capture color.
  • Color4K-T180 - is a great overview camera and can see 180 degrees left-right, so one on the front of the house can see down the entire front (unless you have obstructions LOL). This camera needs light and cannot see infrared. Most would not use this as an IDENTIFY camera. This camera has two-way audio.
  • 4M-T - Great little active deterrence camera with two way talk. Good for anything within 10 feet of camera or as an overview camera. On the ideal MP/sensor ratio. Basically the 54IR (5442) with the red/blue lights and a speaker. Andy is on holiday and probably why it is out of stock, but you can purchase from his website.
For what you are saying, I think the 4M-T is what you need, which is the 3449 bigredfish linked above.
