Can you use this device to record activity to a remote computer?

with the foscam app, there is a button to capture video or take a still picture on demand. I just sent someone to http://wrice.blogspot.com/2013/06/recording-surveillance-video-from.html regarding setting up video capture as well from a computer.

I beleive this would be an option, in my application I was able to connect remotely to my camera and control and observe as well as have the camera send via email or text as many as 6 images when motion was sensed. I used this successfully in my application and was very pleased with its reliabilty. Image quality was excellent and send/receive times were in the area of 10 seconds.

Nope! You need a cam that has software that can be set to record motion to varying degrees of activity! Hope that helps!

Yes, but let me be clear, it is not a set and forget, recording to local computer is done only when logged into the camera's web page (then it can be set and forget...as long as the page stays open on the computer), the default location is C:\IPCamRecord. This will also work for motion detection (alarm) recording, but again, the web page has to be open to record to local PC / Mac. If you insert an SD card, Motion Detection will record regardless of the web page being up or not. I hope that makes sense.

Yes.Or connect the DVR on your network, install software on your PC and record.. (not easy to do).

No, it's not even worth recording, very limited. Hope you find a good one for monitoring at a reasonable price.

Yes, I know you can use the "Dropcam" camera to be connected to the smartthings hub wirelessly. You can view and record video remotely from your smartphone.

It doesn't record to itself. You can set it to email snapshots, so you don't HAVE to have a receiver. A pc can work as well if you don't want the email option.

That may be more tech questions than I can answer. You may be able to do it. For example. I can use wifi and stream to my I pad and actually control the recorder from that.

You can record, however, it's not a CCTV camera, I suspect that's what you're looking for.

No you can't record. It's good for Netflix, yourube, file sharing, music playing

No not directly record into a pc that I know of. Try calling tech support to verify. But to answer question, I am NOT aware of a way to do this. You can record continuously with an SD card which you may already know. I use the lorex phone app to send me an email notification once motion is detected. Then if necessary I use the live function to check on the cameras for anything else going on that I may need to check out.

No. Software has to be installed on a computer in order to record from the unit. Great unit otherwise.

Yes. I'm using it for wireless. You may have to put an adapter on the video cord where you connect the receiver to the recorder.

It's like USB drive, but records very short range/distance. Short answer is 'Yes' it should work.

Not with the phone but with remote computer. With the phone you can take snap shots and record video clips but not watch prerecorded video from DVR drive.
