re: stateroom bridge cam sound

[mya603]

Last year on the Grand Princess, the bridge cam had music playing all day and all night. I was wondering if the Regal plays music on it's bridge cam? I would like to leave the bridge cam up all the time but that music gets annoying after a while. And I don't want to mute the sound because then I couldn't hear any announcements. Any thoughts?

Can't speak to the Regal, but we were on the Star and Coral in June. Neither had the music on the bridge cam. Maybe they got enough complaints about it.

No bridge cam music on our recent Island Princess cruise. It seems like a bad idea to me.

 

I'm not sure what announcements you are talking about getting over the TV. Other than the naturalist in Glacier Bay or something of that sort I don't recall announcements over the TV and, if it was something of that sort, there would definitely not be any music at that time anyway.

Don't remember music! But then don't often watch Bridge Cam on ship!

 

Hey Thrak, I see by you signature that you are booked on the Oct. 8, 2017 Hawaii, Samoa and Fr. Polynesia cruise! That is great, come over to the following:

It's a waste of a channel.

Maybe if they posted the menu's along with some music it might be more entertaining. ;)

When I was on the Regal last year it was silent I believe.

Shipwide announcements can be heard on the bridge cam channel.

Holy cow! I didn't even check for a roll call this far out. I made one for our recent Alaska cruise and started it an insane time before the cruise but figured I was just weirdo. I'll definitely head over there and check it out. :)

Don't stop the Bridge Cam Music!

 

That's the only reason we cruise. Close the shades and sit and watch the Bridge Cam for a week or two. Then disembark the ship.

I guess you're doomed. LOL. I can't be 100% sure, but I think there has been music on every bridge cam channel I've experienced.

I will have to agree with that. I leave it on the web cam channel and listen to the music quite often. :confused:

[slwmjd]

Been on the Regal 4 times , no bridge cam music

Our cruise on the Ruby next month is the first time that DH and I will have an inside cabin. I thought I remember reading somewhere,,,( I don't know where) that if we left the tv on to the bridge cam over night, then it would be like waking up to the sunrise (like having a window). Is that true? Does anyone know, or have done it?

Not weird at all. We're booked on a cruise for May 2018 and the roll call started 2 months ago.

[FritzG]

We've always had it, too. I sometimes keep it on all night if dh is snoring.

[mya603]

Thanks everyone. I didn't like the music. Just wanted to see where we were sailing.

Not if you are in an inside cabin.

[easyboy]

Didn't notice the music when switching to that channel.

[Lucky TGO]

I didn't notice on the Royal in January.

On the Royal this past winter there was no music on the bridge cam channel. Public area P.A. announcements such as those from the CD, or those from the passenger service desk will be heard on that channel. The Royal has interactive TV with music channels. I assume the Regal has the same.

[RNGALNG]

We loved having the TV station on our inside room voyage. We just turned the sound down all the way, not muting. Very helpful. . . .

Yes it does.
