How can I get the two-way audio to work? So far, it does not produce any sound nor broadcast any sound.

Well if you got the cam to work period with windows 7 you did good. I have yet to get the cam to even work like my other cams. Works best as a dummy cam. You get what you pay for and it's junk.

On Macintosh computers the audio functions work using uFoscam (available at the App Store).

Ti, the bi-directional audio does work with just Microsoft windows and Microsoft's browser Internet Explorer (IE), using Microsoft's proprietary ActiveX plug-in. Once you connect with IE, and log into your camera, you will be prompted to download the camera's ActiveX script additional plug-in that controls the audio. Once the ActiveX additional camera plug-in is downloaded and executed, you should be able to click on the camera website icons for the microphone audio. Once enabled, you should be able to hear sound from the camera. I've even added a small 4" loadspeaker on a 3.5 mm plug to let me talk to anyone near the camera--it does work! the problem is that you must rely upon Microsoft's proprietary ActiveX service to run the camera's control script. It all works, but not easily done. Also, I found the audio worked best with a wired Ethernet connection vs. WiFi. y wiFi was too 'bursty' and resulted in broken speech and sounds. But, my camera is mounted outside inside a protective clear dome. Even so, the audio is clear and crisp. The microphone picks up local passing trains, approaching cars, local thunder claps, local children sounds of play, and local barking dogs.

Just click the Mic icon on the app. Make sure you set up audio on the web site login first

Without knowing a lot more about what you are connecting, I can only offer things to check. It worked out-of-the box for me. Check these: Is the 3.5mm plug into the computer headphone jack, is that volume all the way up and selected as the playback device? (Plug a set of headphones in to make sure). Not knowing the TV for playback, it seems you can see the image, yeah? Check that the TV is set for internal speakers, audio set from HDMI and the volume is up. These are things you might have already tried, including a different computer/TV setup. Lastly? Try a different adaptor although I'm leaning towards an incorrect setting on the computer or TV.

Yes, it does have two way audio, the response time is slow (delay, echo, etc), but workable.

yea sound is ghosting, just unpair one of the devices. both devices are giving the same sound out.

I had to go into system preferences (Mac) and change speaker settings. It should recognize your new TV as an external device and give you an option to select. Hope this works!

Hi Eddie.I use a Western Digital Live TV and a Set Top Box. Both connect via HDMI, and both sources have their audio duplicated and sent through the analogue headphone/speaker port. I connect PC speakers to that port and it works great.Greg

Thanks for your interest in our product. I'm not sure what does it means of two way audio, please let me know what specifically, thanks.

There should be an Audio plug, it is a seperate cable you need to purchase! If that doesn't work, try an adapter that has an audio/video splitter.

Go to the Sound properties in Control Panel and make sure it is pointed to use this devices audio driver. This was an automatic process when I installed mine, but obviously there is some other variable in your system. Also go to Device Manager and remove the device and re-install, could be an issue with the audio segment of the driver. Shouldn't be this hard to get audio, so if none of this works it may be defective as others have stated. Hope this helps.

I hooked mine up to my surround sound system, but unfortunately the sound only came through one speaker. Hope you have better luck.

Check your TV to see if there is a setting for controlling the audio out. On mine it is under the Audio menu and is called Audio Out. Setting it to Variable does what you want.

I have been trying to get this to work for awhile and have been unsuccessful. I bought the $40 VGA cable and hooked it up to the TV with a seperate audio cable (headphone jacks) and put the external monitor setting on the PC and I still cannot change the source to PC on the TV. It claims that the source options will only become available when those inputs are hooked up to something......well I am definetely hooked up to my computer and the TV is not taking a signal????? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i had no luck either. in fact i bought a new computer with hmdi and bought hp wireless connectors and the only way i get sound is to unplug my computer speakers. i still am trying to be able to use my surround system connected to the tv. good luck

Um, yeah that's a good question. I'm not saying u can't do it bit Not aware of a way to make the device work w/o going through my surround sound either. Honestly, even though I bought the device, sadly I came across the same thing and ended up not using it. However, you might be able to run optical out of th cable box and try that way. I'm really sorry I'm not much help but understand the frustrations

You could always try plugging the other end in. Otherwise just make sure in your sound settings you don't have "internal speakers" selected. You want the sound output going through the HDMI cord. Hope that helps.

This is on thing I've been having trouble with myself. I have the receiver connected to my home theater system and wanted to play audio from my laptop. I can connect to the receiver with my laptop's Bluetooth, but I haven't been able to get Windows to play sound through It as it doesn't show in audio devices. . I'm using Windows 7 and haven't been able to find any software in the hour I spent searching about it.

I wish I had an easy answer for you, Roger. 2 suggestions: 1) I found the customer service via SimpleSoft's website (http://www.simplesoftusa.com/) helpful. They responded within a day. 2) Keep trying different ports. I had trouble with the bluetooth microphone, and through trial and error, found a workable solution. It involved calling my wife several times, and asking if she could hear me. If not, I tried a different port. Eventually, 1 worked. Frustrating - and poor instructions - but in the end, worth the effort. Good luck!
