misslehead3 0 Posted December 11, 2015 I am currently having issues with quite a few of my cameras. They are Hikvision DS-2CD2135F cameras and according to the paperwork I have seen from them you should be able to attach an external mic to the camera for recording purposes. I am able to attach the mic just fine but in the cameras individual settings I am unable to change the sound setting from LineIn to MicIn, as shown below. Is there some setting I am missing to allow me to change LineIn to MicIn? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

misslehead3 0 Posted December 15, 2015 Line in and Mic in are technically the same aren't they? Line in is for a mic that requires its own power supply I think while MicIn is for mics that dont require their own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vin2install 0 Posted December 16, 2015 Still the same whether its a powered mic or not. That line in functions the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boogieman 1 Posted December 16, 2015 Still the same whether its a powered mic or not. That line in functions the same. No it does not. The hikvision cameras support, powered and non powered mics, you need to set the interface accordingly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
