No it doesn't, it's a very nice player with a excellent video playback. You'll love the great looking picture it plays.

If you're using it as intended, Not at all. Great standalone little unit for BluRay discs. Now, you can use the built-in outputs to project onto bigger screen.

No, it is a self contained unit that plays Blueray discs on its own. Plug it in or run on the long lasting re chargeable battery.

You do not have to connect this to a computer. It powers up by means of the vehicle battery. Now, it does come with instructional DVD's that you need a computer or a DVD player for but the tool itself does not.

It does not have to be connected to the computer. It does have to have an external power supply which is included and it will need an SD card for the memory.

not directly, to connect it to a computer you would need a video capture card that uses an rca connector, along with video capture software in order to transfer it to a computer

This unit is a camera only. It needs to be hard-wired into a dvr or computer. So it will depend on what dvr/computer you have and what software is running on it.

To the best of my knowledge, yes, you need a computer. The only thing I see that it will display directly off a USB drive is pictures. And frankly, the way it displays pictures in that mode is not very useful.

No... I don't have it connected to my computer at all times... only when I want to record something of my DVR. But, this means you cannot automatically schedule recordings.

No, you must connect this device to a computer or tablet because it needs a software that you install and is included

No. and that's one reason it works so well. It's setup to dump the video directly to their web site..All you have to do is to tell it how to log into your wifi..You could for example take it to a hotel and use it to monitor your room, if the hotel had wifi.

I don't know, I only have pictures on my unit. But I would figure if it keeps running through the pictures, it would do the same with a video.

I do not connect this directly to a computer. In order to connect to a computer you would need a the Nauppauge 610 or similar. I use the remote to control the camera.

Yes. The DVR (NVR in this case) will work just fine with or without an internet connection. Without an internet connection you just can't access the video remotely.

It is a stand alone unit. You do not need to plug into a computer; however, it will NOT copy DVDs that you have purchased in the store. They are all copy-guarded.

You can view the video feed locally on your network. Your PC will need to be connected to your network with Ethernet or WiFi. Internet service is not required. Hope this helps!
