I've recently installed BI/Android. I believe I've got it pretty much set to go except for the talk-back feature. My cameras support it and it works fine from my pc, but when I try to use it from my phone, it can't be heard at the camera, but rather a loud feedback/buzz noise coming from the pc the service is running on. And not over the pc speakers, but from the little onboard speaker that makes beeps, etc. When booting up.

I've read several posts on the subject, but to no avail. Any ideas?

Which camera is it? I had to play with the camera settings in BI to find one that worked as the find/inspect option wasn't let me use two-way with the BI app on Android.

Bummer - don't have those.

The find/inspect found the generic, which normally BI does a good job at finding the right one.

For mine, this is the one that allowed two-way to work (the one in Blue):

Well, just for giggles I changed to the Dahua make and model you used, and I got video and lost the feedback! Unfortunately, there's still no sound.

Bummer. It took me I think 6-7 tries of different make/model until I got it to work. Hopefully someone has your camera and can offer a suggestion!
