2-way Audio w/ Reolink PoE Doorbell

[Gailahan]

I have weird issues as well. On a Windows 10 PC I don’t see the microphone or audio mute buttons at all on the Frigate Card, and it’s the same on a Samsung Galaxy S20 Android phone. However, on a Samsung Galaxy Tablet I do see the microphone and audio mute buttons, but the microphone button does not appear to work. I have my config and some pictures below. Anyone have any ideas?

Frigate Card on Samsung Galaxy Tablet shows microphone and audio button:

Anybody else having issues after Frigate Gate 6.0 update? I can’t get audio or the microphone to work anymore.

this happend to me, when I had the local IP set up on my tablet. Same icon as you.
issue was that the local IP is without HTTPS

changing to the external url, with HTTPS, it is working now

I wrote this simple guide, with a blueprint that creates an intercom like card: 2 Way audio Intercom for Reolink doorbell made easy

Is there an official way to get this to work with Frigate? I feel like after scrolling through this thread and trying each config nothing works in HA. I see microphone in frigate via https: and can activate it just fine. Can’t find a way to do this though in HA. I am accessing HA via https: as well.

Note: The android app asks for mic access but never displays the button.

I did have it working but didn’t provide the benefit I was hoping it would (ditching reolink app completely) because it jus was too slow. What I now have is when it rings I get a snapshot from ha and am able to open the reolink app from the notifications.

Not a real answer sorry

What’s people’s experiences with v3.0.0_4662_2503122270?

Changelog via Reddit (because it’s not on Reolink’s own firmware update page):

• Support HDR function optimized image parameters.
• Support conversion recording and video deletion function
• Support AI-animals
• Recommend upgrade the app version to 4.52.or above.

I just updated to v3.0.0_4662_2503122284 for my White POE doorbell, and 2-way audio is working great. I haven’t explored any of the other updates.

i assume talking to the doorbell still has 2-3 second of latancy? pritty much unusable IMO
