No Audio on Live Video Streaming
Audio may not work during Live Video Streaming if the required audio settings are not enabled at both the Company and Vehicle/Object levels.
For a newly introduced audio functionality, audio access must first be enabled for the company. After that, audio must also be enabled for the specific vehicle from the Object Camera Settings.

Troubleshooting Steps
Step 1: Check Company-Level Audio Access
- Log in to the platform.
- Navigate to the relevant Company account.
- Open the required User/Company Settings.
- Check whether the Audio functionality/access is enabled.
- If it is not enabled, enable it first.
Note: Audio access must be enabled at the company level before it can be used for individual vehicles.
Step 2: Enable Audio for the Vehicle
- After enabling the company-level audio functionality, go to the relevant vehicle/object.
- Open Object Settings / Object Camera Settings.
- Check whether the Audio option is enabled for the specific vehicle.
- Enable the option if it is disabled.
- Save the configuration.
Step 3: Test Live Streaming
- Open the Live Tracking screen.
- Select the affected vehicle.
- Open the live video streaming option.
- Verify whether the audio is now available.
- If multiple video telematics vehicles are affected, repeat the configuration check for the respective vehicles.
Possible Cause
The audio issue can occur when:
- Audio functionality has not been enabled for the Company.
- Audio has not been enabled for the specific Vehicle/Object.
- The vehicle's camera/audio configuration is not enabled.
- The issue affects multiple vehicles because the company-level audio access has not been configured.
Resolution / Action
Enable audio in the following order:
Company Level → Enable Audio Access
↓
Vehicle/Object Level → Object Camera Settings → Enable Audio
↓
Live Tracking → Live Video → Test Audio
Note: Enabling audio at the company level alone is not sufficient. Audio must also be enabled for the specific vehicle/object from the applicable camera settings before audio can work during live streaming.
