Where is this done in the app? Could you please post pictures?

Someone will need to find the correct call that happens from phone to camera once this is adjusted and then we can implement this.

@JurajNyiri I've played around for a few days with pytapo and read through the documentation that helped create it, and I've come up with a solution that was working for me to change the microphone level and disable the Privacy mode locally. Here it is below. I hope it helps you, and you can implement it!

from pytapo import Tapo user = USERNAME password = PASSWORD host = HOST_IP tapo_one = Tapo(host, user, password) tapo_one.setPrivacyMode(False) tapo_one.executeFunction('setMicrophoneVolume', {'method':'set', 'audio_config': {'microphone': {'volume': '100'}}})

Thank you that is great! I will implement it soon. We will need to also find if there's a function to get the current volume.

@JurajNyiri This will help you find all current values for the microphone and the speaker.

tapo.executeFunction('getAudioConfig', {'method':'get', 'audio_config': {'name':['speaker', 'microphone']}})

This is the reply back: {'audio_config': {'speaker': {'.name': 'speaker', '.type': 'audio_config', 'volume': '100'}, 'microphone': {'.name': 'microphone', '.type': 'audio_config', 'sampling_rate': '8', 'channels': '1', 'encode_type': 'G711alaw', 'mute': 'off', 'noise_cancelling': 'on', 'volume': '100'}}}

You could also add implementation for controlling the camera speaker. This would be the command to set the speaker volume: tapo.executeFunction('setSpeakerVolume', {'method':'set', 'audio_config': {'speaker': {'volume': '50'}}})
