Audio from another cam not working

[DsineR]

I am using an external mic with my Driveway Cam (line in feed), and want to use this same audio feed for my PTZ cam.
I have successfully done this with other cams, but only when using the cam's internal mic.
No luck when using the Driveway cam's external mic when selected for another cam. Is this a BI limitation?

Do you hear audio from the Driveway cam when viewing it directly through it's web GUI? What about viewing this camera directly in BI?

This most likely will be user error in some form or another.

Yes - works when using the web UI & thru BI.
Have tried using the Driveway cam audio on serveral cam's, no luck.

Sometimes mine goes wonky like that and a restart camera in BI gets it going again.

Restarting the cam in BI did not work.
BUT, the Driveway cam is cloned a couple times (spotters). and mic audio from Clone#1 works as a source for other cams.
Strange it does not work with the Driveway cam or Clone#2.
Mic audio is present on the Driveway cam, and both Clones when viewing thru BI. Mystery why only Clone#1 mic audio works with other cams.

I would be sure that you are trying to pull audio from the original driveway cam instance in BI, not from any of the clones.

Confirmed, original Driveway Cam is not providing mic audio to other cams.
Tested this on another cam, same results.
Only Clone#1 provides mic audio.
