Model: Tapo C225  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.0.7

I recently bought Tapo C225 and C500 cameras. The audio quality of both cameras is poor, so I can't hear conversations clearly.  They are much worse than my old TP-link cameras.  I notice that the background noise level of the old cameras is high, but I can hear the conversations clearly.  I think the issue of the new cameras is caused by the noise cancellation.  But I can't find a way to disable the noise cancellation feature. 

 

I read from another post that other users of C220 solved this issue with another firmware:

I would like to know where I can find the firmware to disable noise cancellation for C225 and C500.  Thanks a lot!

Hi,
1. Can you share a link to download the video recordings of the reported issue?
2. Please send me(@Solla-topee) the MAC address of the camera via a private message.
Best Regards

Hi,
On the Tapo app>camera's Device Settings>Device Info page, you can find its MAC address. And you can send me(@Solla-topee) the MAC address via a private message.
Best Regards

  @Solla-topee 

hello, I also have the same issue with my D225 video doorbell. The sound from the speaker means that there is no way that I can actually understand what anyone is saying because it's so echoing and so crackly  so I was just wondering if you could also send me the link to be able to try and sort out the voice control on my video doorbell so that I don't get rid of this noise disturbance from the crackling and echoing as I can't hear anything at all from the actual doorbell.
