With the app does it have the ability to use as surveillance with laptop and click to record on and off?

Yes to both. It will need to operated through Internet Explorer as far as I can tell, but through IE you're able to set it to record and specify a file location. I believe it also has the ability to only record when it detects movement.

Hi, Paul. This camera can motion detect, also it can email photo but no video directly to your smartphone, please noted.

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

Sorry don't really, know. What I do know is that after initally working with windows xp, the software started using the laptops built in camera as the video source rather than the inspection camera. As of yet I have not been able to make it go back to the inspection camera. While it worked it worked well, other than it is a little floppy, so when you put it in a small hole, it is somewhat hard to control direction.

Yes, you can use it with different software enabling it to do anything. It will also record 24/7 with the original software.Be advised you will always see a light on, green during the day and many red ones during the night.Additionally, you can have it always on; but only recording for motion or alarm (external trigger) to conserve storage space.

Absolutely not. Q-See has software for Android and iPhone that can be downloaded from the app-store or GooglePlay so you can view your live footage as well as recording from the application. You can even change settings remotely and save them back to the system. Of course all of this is only possible if your system is connected to your internal network. you will however initially need a monitor to set up the DVR and after that you do not need a keyboard, mouse or monitor.

I believe it does. I don't have the option enabled, but I saw it in the menu when I was doing the setup. Right now I have it set to just record when it detects motion.

You can plug it straight into your computer or iDevice. Both will recognize it and let you record without any additional equipment.

Not that I know of. It seems like anytime it is plugged in with Internet access, it is on. Sounds like that would be the function of some outside recording device if that is your intention. This camera simply provides a live feed. Good quality audio and video for indoors.

Yes, to monitor and record unattended you need blue iris. If you only need to record when you are viewing the camera IPcam viewer for IOS can record clips.

Yes - it has motion detection in the sense that it starts recording when motion is detected. It doesn't just continuously record...it only records when it detects motion

I do not see an option for that. It can FTP snapshots when motion is detected. That said, I have an IPhone app called IP Cam Viewer that will record video from any of my web cams.

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.

It records as soon as someone ring the doorbell. I forgot to check if it does have a motion detector. You can't access the recorded feed remotely. It is meant to show you who's outside the door when your home without peeking at the peephole plus taping it so you know who tried to visit you while you're gone. It is really a fun useful gadget. I have it in my condo in Asia. If you want to access the feed remotely and record it in an sweetdreams card, I have the security camera at the house here for that. And yes, it has a motion detector, light sensor so it can record in the dark etc. pretty much what you wanted. I can't use this in the condo since the association is pretty strict about the common space which I'm perfectly fine with. Have a great weekend.
