Yes it does have Motion Detection, when connected to TV you can adjust your Settings to your Needs....Very Good Product..

SOME NOT ALL. For some reason not all apps are able to move over COMPLETELY--if at all--to an SD card. HOWEVER, OTHER APPS can be moved over so it helps with space.

I have no idea, there should be on line instructions, each movement triggers a recording, which is stored in the unit and oldest is overwritten when recording new when the memory card is full

So far I've only used the 8gb card. The 8gb card takes about a month to fill up using 2 cameras having the motion sensor set on low. When you put the sd card in your computer and watch the files. Each file is per day, it tells you the times the motion sensor is set off. Which I like very much. So I am able to check a certain time frame that may be in question.

Yes, the camera is motion activated. It seems to run fairly well when activated. However, if the object is running it may blur slightly. You can program it to take a series of pictures (1,2,3 or 4) consecutively when activated and even program it to record video. It will take good night and day time shots when motion activated.

It does not take and SD card. It becomes a device on your network. It can be setup to trigger when it senses motion and then email you the photos.

It records on your computer or with the SD card. It is motion and sound activated. I use the SD card. It is an excellent buy,

Yes, it does. You can find it in the settings once you connect it to the PC... there are two options given - 0 & 1, for normal mode and for motion detection respectively. Change the settings as per your requirement/ convenience and save it as instructed. I haven't yet tested the motion detecting mode though have already set it in the setting background. It's always good to set it as per the need in advance ;)

thanks Draven...but do you know if i can also hook up extra motion/trip sensors ? ...and does the cpu use pixel changes in camera images to detect motion that act like a trip sensor/alarm ?

Mine only records when motion triggers it and it records for 30 seconds or as long as there is enough motion to be detected. You can set it to record over old recording if it is at capacity. I have a SD card that I download to my pc if I want to keep it, otherwise I just delete everything after a few days.

I looked all the way through the book and could not find anything about motion sensing. It is also not an option with the menu or settings features. I would say no motion sensing. I have 2 of these frames and love them. I only use them for displaying pictures which show beautifully. Hope this helps.

Using opensource software, I have been able to record on motion detection. I believe the SW allows you to set it up to record only at certain times.

Yes it does,but specifically the Motion XPS shows up,don't know about any other apps..

No, it doesn't have the motion function. Accidentally clicked yes in the Email, but I just tested it and no.

Yes, it is solely motion activated, but you would be surprised how little motion it takes.

Maybe limit the area that motion is detected? This can be done in advanced settings. Best solution is recording to larger server that can handle more storage than SD card. Requires some IT knowledge but expands the record time. I wouldn't decrease the motion sensitivity as this will delay recording. You are able to designate different areas in the camera view to different sensitivity levels also. For this level of camera it is somewhat limited. Let me know if this helps. I've had mine for 2 years. It takes a bit of adjustment

Yes it's motion and heat activated saves pictures to an SD card but it won't alert you. It does send a copy of the picture to the external box which saves pictures to a seperate SD card but it is of a lower quality. Using the box chews batteries quicker but still last a long time and is a very good camera. If you need a camera to alert you when activated you will have to get a camera that uses a network.
