Anyone here used custom audio files?

One of the reasons I looked at the 45PRO was to play audio from external speakers that escalated as you got closer to my shop. Works great so far using the available audio clips (about 10 of them) but wanted to know if anyone here ever used a custom audio file loaded to the camera before?
In the documentation there is no reference to how long it can be, just the supported formats. If not I will test some file lengths. thinking no more than 5 seconds but all the default ones seem to be 2 seconds long.
Young grasshopper getting into the weeds before he is ready :wtf:

Yes you can load other audio files into it - but the memory limits are really low and you will probably have to resample to lower the bitrate to take it.

Or with Blue Iris, you can send an audio file from it to the camera.

I was thinking the BI rout eventually , keeping it simple for now. The 54pro seems to have lots of memory 2+4G which seems high. Just checking if anyone else had experience. I will experiment and share my findings.
Thanks again....
 
That memory is going to the AI processing lol. I would be shocked if it accepts audio files larger than the other two way cams.
