Google Nest 2nd Gen outdoor camera audio

Saqqara114

I have three Google nest 2nd gen outdoor wired cameras and whenever I’m viewing recorded video footage it seems like I’m able to hear in the distance people talking but it’s very muffled and sometimes distorted sounding but I’ve sometimes been able to make out some things that are being said and there talking about things that me or members of my family are doing ex: standing outside or pulling out of the garage, checking the mail etc…. 
But when looking around on the cameras nobody is standing outside anywhere that is in camera view. What is this distance that these camera could be capturing this from

Hi Saqqara114,

Thanks for reaching out to the community! I understand you're hearing distant, muffled conversations in the recorded footage from your Nest camera devices that seem to relate to activities on your property, even when no one is visible. I'll be glad to help with the information you need! 

While there isn't a specific, universal range, the actual range can depend on the area's noise level and other environmental factors. To help me understand what might be happening and explore potential solutions, I'd like to ask the following questions: 

  • Where are your Nest camera devices located in relation to where you're hearing these sounds?
  • What are your Nest camera device-specific models? Please check out the following link for your reference: Technical specs for Nest cameras and doorbells
  • Did you notice any regular times you get these conversations on your footage?

Keep me posted. I look forward to your response. 

Best regards,
Juan
