Audio only records when the given monitor's type is ffmpeg and the storage option is set to h264 passthrough with the audio checked.

You can test with ffmpeg from the command line and see if the output file plays sound.
Something like this:

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i rtsp://user:password@camIP:554/Streaming/Channels/101 -c:v copy -c:a aac foo.mp4
The path stuff in the url after the port will be specific to your camera's RSTP url.

Audio is not played during live streaming(live view).

Yes the FFMPEG command is running audio with the visual perfectly. But while we look at he the monitor(camera) on zoneminder from the console window it only shows the video without the audio.I am talking about being able to hear sound along with visual from during live streaming in the page mentioned in the screenshot.

ZM doesn't support audio playback for live streams. Only for recorded events.
