Webserver audio

Hi,

is there a way to have the cams transmit audio but on the webserver browser setting set them mute? Would like to listen only when I want to. Turning off the audio each time the page loads in the browser is annoying.

    Hi Peter - currently not; audio will play automatically if it's allowed to by the browser.

    If you're using Google Chrome what you can do is right-click on the tab at the top of the window, and select "Mute Site". This will be remembered across window closing/opening. Subsequently you can go back to this option and unmute when you want to hear audio.

    In Safari, you will see an audio button to the right of the address bar at the top of the window to turn audio on/of. However this isn't remembered across window closing/opening.

    Hi Ben,

    thank you for your quick answer. That is exactly what I do, its just I need to do it each time I open the broser which is a 100 Times a day.

    This certainly sounds inconvenient. I'll see if we can add our own audio switch to the live video web pages, however this would have to be separate from the browser's own control (which can't be controlled by the web page), so I'm worried that having two separate on/off controls may lead to a certain amount of confusion.

    In the settings would be great already for each cam. Some you wanna hear some not.

    Thanks Ben
