Can I set up a monitor to simply show a constant video stream from the camera?

Yes if by monitor you mean a PC or Mac desktop computer or laptop or iPhone or iPad.

The camera doesn't connect to directly to the monitor. It connects to your wireless/wired network, so as long as whatever software you choose works on your computer and is compatible with camera you should be ok

Make sure ur AC Adaptor or Battery can Supply 12 volts and at least 400 Miliamps and u hav an Active Video signal Transmitting to the monitor. the monitor automatically shuts down all circuits cept the video processor to save power wen no video is present but wen a video signal is detected the monitor will turn on the Screen. this is a nice feature as i plan to use it as a remote Viewfinder for my Camera. Note on powered camera, all cameras r powered wen working and the Rear view cameras DO Not supply power thru their video outputs On the stripped end of the Power line the red wire is Positive Make sure ur AC Adaptor or Battery can Supply 12 volts and at least 400 Miliamps and u hav an Active Video signal Transmitting to the monitor. the monitor automatically shuts down all circuits cept the video processor to save power wen no video is present but wen a video signal is detected the monitor will turn on the Screen. this is a nice feature as i plan to use it as a remote Viewfinder for my Camera.

If you camera has setting like display info though HDMI, then the monitor will show everything as your camera screen shows. My DSLR has this setting. I think most camera should have.

You can watch what the camera is monitoring via Skype from any computer, essentially it is a seperate feature. The monitor has to be in range of the camera and does not work off of SKype.

I am still learning and I did not set mine up for that but you can view these in a number of ways with lots of different software.I am using ISPY freeware and you can specify a youtube channel I think from there. also works with VLC media player. just set up the ip and pull it up.also Airvision comes with it for monitoring as well.

Yes you can just turn on the unit and when the screen comes up, just press the "OK" button and it will start recording but it will be set for long distance viewing.

You have a HDMI exit port that you can link to a monitor AND (in theory) to a SDI converter that you can use in a regular streaming way...

The monitor has it's own battery (purchased separately), so as long as the cam you're using has a hot shoe mount, you should be good to go

Sorry, the monitor does not have the necessary circuitry to do that. It is a very nice monitor for Windows 7, though. Hope this helps!

Yes. I've got mine to record 100% of the time, but also make a log in the system when there is motion. You can also pick which portion of the monitor to record the motion on, so you can block out trees and such so there are fewer false reports.

I haven't tried it, but I assume it would display video just fine. However, there isn't a speaker on the monitor, so you wouldn't get audio through it.

Not with the software it comes with. XSplit will work with it and output a greenscreen'd video stream.

No, you can't. Is just a stand alone camera. (you can view the live stream using your computer/mobile device)

Nope. All it needs is a power supply (comes with it, plug-in 12v transformer!) and typical connectors/wire to a monitor and it'll give a constant, live feed. Low def, but a constant feed. (Also, the camera is really small, incredible for the price. It can be hidden most anywhere and adapted for use in many locations including J-box, under-counter/roofline, ceiling, toys, etc.)

No, you need an IP camera also called an internet camera. This camera will display video on a monitor which is good for CCTV (closed circuit TV). There are tons of IP camera on the internet. Google them.

No ! You can only used the monitor supplied. However with the APP you can view your cameras on any media - computer, IPHONE, iPad etc
