The base does not stick so well, unfortunately, and is too wide to balance easily on the top of a monitor.

As far I know, this is only an external graphics Card that ports from your computer to another monitor. So you should be able to use it from another computer to the VA connection of your laptop to use the laptop as another monitor. So if the signal is coming into your laptop then you can record it.

The Webcam has micro included, if it is supported by the OS (and it should), no problem with that :)

No, it needs to be connected to a DVR receiver and has a specific monitor. Since it is not ip camera , it can't be connected to computer directly.

There is a built-in Web Cam and Mike. Works as well as any of the three I have used.

There is software you can install on your PC that can monitor the video stream the camera sends out over wifi and if the software detects motion, it can start recording the video stream to your PC. Foscam provided a software CD with the camera but I never installed it so I don't know if the software Foscam provided had motion detection abilities.

I have found none and have tried several. The instructions are extremely poor and the setup even worse. Honeywell claims this as a feature but doesn't support it. If you are using a Foscam, I recommend using the Foscam app so you can view cameras anywhere over the internet.

No the wireless monitor can not be connected to a computer to my knowledge. I would not recommend you get this product especially if you are planning on wanting to record.

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.

No, I don't believe this would work, if i understand you correctly. It sounds like you want to be able to use the camera with the computer, and the vga port in the back of the computer is for outgoing signals and not incoming ones. You might try an adapter card (pci or pcie depending on the age of your system) or an external usb adapter if you're using a laptop which allows incoming video signals. As a very easy way to accomplish this, I've used a product called EasyCap, available here at Amazon in many different forms and for a range of prices.

You can set this camera to record a short video clip when it detects motion using the Foscam IP Camera Tool program. The problem is you have to keep the window open in IE all the time or it won't record. I use Blue Iris software to manage my video cameras and much prefer that to the IP Camera Tool.

I have mines hooked up to my lap top and I can hook the laptop to the TV monitor and see it like that. You can't hook it up directly to your TV be a use it has to be connected to wifi

Plug in both cords (the USB and audio) into the ports on your computer before turning your computer on. You can check them by using the program that you want a web cam for (i.e. Skype, IM video, etc.). You can also click on the start button on your desktop -> Control Panel -> Sound and/or Speech Recording.

No, I don't believe that there is any way to use it as a webcam. It's only connection to the computer is to download video files taken by the Handycam.

Hi, Attach is probable not the right word. It sits on the top edge of the monitor. As long as your laptop is open and level, the webcam will stay in place. When you close your laptop, it will come off. It might also slide off if you walk around with your laptop. You can probable come up with a simple way to attach it if you wanted.

Ya it is, it's only for video, you'll have to get an audio jack chord to hook from your laptop to your tv or whatever device your linking up with

No, this is not a webcam, this is more for monitoring. You can buy a very good webcam for much cheaper
