Hi, 

 

I have a set of Arlo Pro cameras and I am in the process of setting them up. My older system allowed for a constant live view with audio (like a baby monitor, for example) that was ideal for my situation. I would like to know if the same thing can be replicated with this system.

 

So far, I can have constant live stream, but I am only getting the live video feed without any audio. It seems if I "arm" the system and the camera's sense motion, it will "record" but I'm not necessarily looking to have the video recorded. 

 

Ultimately, I'm looking to have the audio feed stay open while the live feed is running, is this a possibility?

Yes. You should get video and audio in the recorded videos as well as with live viewing. There is a speaker icon in the live view screen, make sure it isn't muted. Also in the settings for each individual camera you'll see audio settings. Make sure speaker and mic are turned on and the volume is up as high as you want/need it.
