I doubt it. I can't view or record from my VCR. I would buy a more reliable cable. Other users said this one is so inexpensive it is not worth returning so manufacturer doesn't care. I agree. Others for a few dollars more appear to have good reviews.

I'm sorry, but I'm not 100% sure. It only cost me like $4.00 total including shipping, so I was not out much just trying it.

Not without the right software--not included--I couldn't get it to work for me, same objective.

The answer is "yes, depending on your recording needs". The camera can email short video clips triggered by timed motion detection - or, if your technically adept, you can set up a samba server to manage timed video uploads - or you can use top notch, inexpensive viewing software for remote viewing and manual recording saved to your smartphone, pad or computer. The last option requires that you set up an inexpensive ($19/year) DNS service. Your camera installation software will help you do this. Note: your wifi router should be a UPnP router. Apple routers will not work unless you are an expert technologist capable of working with port forwarding. All this may seem complicated - but it's not. My 4 cameras work using techniques 1 and 3 - and I'm a businessman - not a technologist.

I am not using it for a security camera, however I do know that it will record to a computer and I have not tried to use the other feature.

on your wireless digital monitor their is a screen called, ( rwcord), on that screen, you can record for how ever you have it set up. 1. if you have a 64gb card you can record for a very long time. (their is a overwite on the record screen, what that means is, the if your card gets full, it well tape over, what was on their before, and the old recording, will be erased.) you can also schedule a record for what ever time, that you want it. it boils down to this, it is according how big your card is that you put inside your monitor. (when you buy a card in gb, it will till you how long it will record, in minutes. look at the brochure that comes with the card. they have less gigabit cards, and highier gigabit cards. go to amazon, and look for cards for wireless defender camera dvr's. they have all size gigabit cards, also look in your instruction book, which has a lot of information. that will help you also. jim in ohio, big_jim_usa_42928@yahoo.com

No. This camera must be connected to a dvr. You may be looking for an ip camera.

Yes it is. You will need to plug the camera into a USB video recording device such as the (Diamond VC 500) This will allow the camera to work with your laptop.

the camera isn't wireless but the video monitor is. The camera must be plugged into a power source.

1.You can connect this camera to your TV directly to get the footage. 2.No, it doesn't work wirelessly. You need other device to send the video to your laptop. 3. It won't work up to 500ft away. The camera can work 500ft much more expensive. 4.You can use USB DVR, or DVR card or RCA to VGA converter to attach your laptop.

You have got to get the Audio Video Power Security Camera Cable with BNC RCA Adaptor ACBVA150 3JH. I can send you a pic of how to hook it up. If you send me a link to copy and paste it. If you see the pic you will know how it works

Should work if both the tenvis and the laptop are connected to the wi-fi spot, but I found that you must periodically check the router configuration. Wireless connectivity is also possible, but I've found that the this connection is not constant and must also be maintained and corrected from time to time.These kinds of tweeks seem to be common for this price level of security camera. The strength of the wi-fi signal is also of importance as is the wi-fi traffic (particularly problematic in multi-dwelling units)

I tried something much like this, and it didn't work. I think there are timing issues. If you want a remote webcam, you may have to go to one that is wifi-enabled.

You would have to purchase a wireless receiver to hook up to the DVR and a wireless camera.

yes, but you will need software to do this. I have a synology nas that has a free application called surveillance station that you can connect the camera to and record. im sure there are several other applications that can do the same.

All I know is the signal is by the included cables from receiver to a monitor. I don't know of any way to catch the wireless signal from camera to another device. My model is not intended for internet or cell use.

I was never able to get the camera to work on the wireless. So, no. In my experience, you are better off purchasing a different camera (brand).

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.

Maybe . This is a wired backup camera. You will need to run power and video wires.
