Hi All,
New forum member here, and new to security cameras in general. Just dipped my toes in a couple of months ago.
I've got an analog camera and mic feeding into a Vivotek VS8100-v2 video server. Video into BI is ok, but I'm not hearing any audio from the feed. When I access the Vivotek browser-based GUI from the same machine I am running BI on, I am able to hear audio correctly. So, that suggests I've at least got the server and ports set up properly on the hardware and network side.
When I set up the "camera" in BI, pointing the network to the VS's IP address, BI does not appear to detect the audio stream. "AudioOutputs: 0" when I click the Find/Inspect button - Note it is correctly identifying the VS.
However, BI configures the VS as "Generic / RTSP H.264..."
I've tried using the automatically assigned configuration with an audio path added, and tried modifying the configuration as I think it should be:
In the Status / Log, I will get hundreds of messages for Audio Timeout throughout the day.
This is the only camera I am attempting to use with audio, and the only one with audio enabled. I am able to select the "headphones" in BI, and it does give the green dot on the camera window indicating audio enabled. I've seen reference to some similar issues, but the circumstances don't seem to match with what I've got going on.
Any suggestions on what configuration changes I need to make in BI or where to begin (continue) troubleshooting?
