Audio recording

Twomuchangel4u — Wed, 19 Oct 2022 06:40:58 GMT

I continue to get audio recordings that is killing my battery for all cameras. I disabled all audio. Only have person, animal or package detection active however I keep getting audio recording. How do I stop these or deactivate so I don’t need to change my battery every other day due to wind or loud noise from the wind?

Edit the mode that’s selected, edit the wanted camera rule in that mode and disable audio triggering.

Just to clarify that you want to stop your cameras from recording to the library when they detect audio sounds such as wind or loud noises etc?

What camera model and base do you have?

Is CO/smoke detection also disabled (guessing yes, but worth double-checking). The CO/smoke detection feature actually uses audio - it is looking for chirps/alarms from your smoke detector). So if that is enabled, make sure it is off.
