Are you able to turn off the sound completely (mute) and just view the picture? I saw some reviews where people said the volume went low but not off.

I was not able to on the original unit I bought in 2012, but I am able to on the replacement model they sent me in 2013.

Yes, you can turn the sound off. Just go to the menu and hit the down button until zero bars are highlighted. My monitor completely turns off the sound and leaves the picture on (for a minute or two if it's not plugged in.)

Yes. The volume can be turned all the way off (muted), with the picture still on.

The first monitor we had the sound did not turn off all the way, but I think it was just a bad monitor, we had to return it for another reason the replacement was bad too, but the third and final one (the one we have now) works great and the sound turns all the way off.

I am having the same problem (I hadn't noticed the volume level though). Anyone have any ideas?

There are two volume settings on it. Even the lowest setting is not very quiet. I can hear it while the tv is on at a normal volume...If that helps at all.

Visual volume bar is an option in settings. I don't think you can disable the on-screen mute notification though.

Hi there. We sort of like the monitor, don't love it. The sound is annoying. There are 6 levels, but no matter which setting you choose, it does this thing where it's one level when you set it, but then it lowers. Whenever there's sound in the room, it goes back up to where you originally set it. In other words, it tries to think for you? You put it at one setting, but then it lowers. It's frustrating. If I want the sound on HIGH, then leave it there, don't decide FOR ME that I really want it lower.That said, the sound itself is just fine. LOL. If baby cries, you'll hear it!

We've had nothing but trouble with ours...... now ours will play for a few minutes, then the picture goes black while sound still works (IF you turn it off, then it will come back on for a couple minutes before going black again)....... getting ready to purchase a new one (NOT RCA THIS TIME!).

Yes! Within the settings menu "tools" there is a mute selection. Either on or off for mute. Once mute is selected (on) there is absolutely no audible sound for camera operations.

If you are alone, you can listen with your. Earphones with the TV on mute. If there are other people that would also like to listen, then just turn up the volume like normal and they can listen like normal. You do not have to make any changes. The volume of the earphones is independent of that of the TV. The quality of the sound with the earphones is unbelievable.

You can set it to radio inbetween stations for white noise and put the volume all the way down, that's what I do. Haven't found a way to choose no sound at all but this is pretty close. I can't hear it down on the lowest setting.

No volume control. You can turn off the sound completely, or have the sound on.

Dear Derek, We are so sorry for your inconvenience. Unfortunately, we do not have the option to turn off the LED during playback. Thanks

Yes you can turn the volume all the way down on your video screen so you dont hear the cameras. And i think you can turn each camera off, but you cant turn the sound off on the individual cameras; only on the monitor you use to see/listen.

Yes. The video only goes away if you either press the button on the side to switch to just volume or if the battery is low because it's unplugged. I often have my unit on mute and just watching the video.

I'm just curious if you've tried recording something on the video setting and playing it back on your computer to see if the sound comes out. The "speaker" or playback on the cameras are piss poor, not that they should be anything great, but it might be possible that you can't hear it on the camera but the sound pics up on video and you can hear it on playback. Hope that made some sense. I hope it works out for you.

did you flip the adjustment switch on the bottom or check to see if you muted the sound. I have not tried the device on my computer but I use it on my tv. hope this helps

Here is how I use it. Turn the devices volume just a little high. Use the volume control to turn it down to your liking. The range is enough to turn it down to FULL OFF, with no audio coming thru. I am glad I brought it.
