Does this allow video recording and if so how do I do that?

If you use this with an iPhone app like foscampro or babycam that iPhone or iPad app will allow you to record by the push of a button. The web based version does not.

You would need to download application for it. Go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODeFiOYTZho. This is a youtube instructions on how to record. They recommend to download the application from www.vitamindinc.com. I never had the need to record so have not used it. Good luck.

yes, you need software to do it, that does not cost much. BlueIris is the name of the software I believe, and it works wonderful. Records sound too if you want it to. I think it is 40$ for the software. The foscam site has a link for the software.

Yes. Buy third-party software, e.g. Blue Iris for Microsoft Windows, tinyMonitor for Google Android. Free demo and download are available.

You absolutely positively do NOT need nor want Blueiris. It's useless! I'm not a computer genius but it took me about a week of testing before setting it up perfectly. Didn't You get the foscam setup CD? The video recording is great and easy. I also use FOSCAM Pro app on my iPad and iPhone ($4.99) and this makes all the apps amazing. Anyways you can do video recordings and they are very easy to do. Just use the FOSCAM pro, there is a button for recording. Seriously, Blueiris is not necessary. Do you have 1,2 or 3 cameras? And are you going to use them for your cell phone, computer (which kind), or cell phone and computer. You absolutely positively do NOT need nor want Blueiris. It's useless!

Funny thing, I didn't use BlueIris...at all. Was able to install all (3) F18910W cameras, 1 at a time. Perhaps you need BlueIris if you want to blow $40 like the others here. Otherwise watch the instructional video that is included with the cam. Then install the cams with the SOFTWARE it was SHIPPED WITH. Done. $40 in your pocket. Download the prefered app on your phone and transfer the HTTP, Port, username & password. (Or just spend $40 and watch your money go down the drain...your call)

Yes it allows video recording and you can use the software provided or you can use I spy a free video camera system software. Just go to www.ispyconnect.com

Hello,That would be through a separate recorder or a computer set to do that or maybe a cloud service. I havent done it so you'd have to do research.

Not sure, I have never used it for recording. It does appear to be HD video feed onto the screen I view it from.

this is a switch, you would need to have a NAS/hard drive to record the camera video, or use a camera that can act as a server and send snapshots of events like motion detection to your email etc.

You configure it to work with whatever application you plan to use the camera with and then you record it from the software. It's not a very good camera for video, but it works for something.

You have the option to turn the audio on or off. So, you can record video without audio.

Yes, all it does is carry the protocol. So some video can't be recorded. This device doesn't filter that out

It records video and GPS data separately. Only to use Virb editor s/w to turn on GPS data over video

I don't really know. I have only recorded onto a CD and I don't believe you can record any other way. However, there is a way to connect to your computer, so there may be some options I am not aware of.

If you want video recorded, you must install a disk drive internal to the unit. You cannot use the drive on a computer running Windows. The installation uses SATA cables just like a computer so nearly any SATA drive will work.

No, this cannot record in MPEG-4, sadly.I'm not sure what your second question is.

If you want to record you will need to connect the camera to a DVR (Digital video recorder) or something similar otherwise it is just live video connected to a monitor.

No it doesn't record video, but it can be set up to take a snapshot and email it to you when motion is detected.

I don't believe that you can...NO.However, saying that; the video recording always produces a jpeg from the first frame or so of the video, that appears when you download the video to your computer.

If you don't already have it, you need to purchase the U12W camera components. This will provide you with USB cabling and an SD card which you can record to. Then, either by connecting to a PC through the USB cable, or interfacing with the SD card, you can then see the recorded footage.

Depending on your camera. Yes. With an hdmi output from your camera to the monitor or you should be able to see what you're recording as you're recording it.

This records the video from a camera, deck, or other device outputting video. It is not for screen capture.

I have not used that feature except to test the video. I do not know if it can record sound. I don't recognize a microphone anywhere. I am not sure it can connect live with the internet, either. If you seek that, you might want to contract Olympus about that. Sorry I could not be of more help. I have not looked into the manual in a big way. I just take pictures and its wonderful for that.
