"system" is a misnomer. I got them as add-ons to round out my existing Q-See DVR system. I know of no way to used them without a Q-See DVR, or compatible. They are not HD but good for what I wanted.

You will need a dvr for this cameras and there are not that great. I actully had to buy another 4 of them

You will need to purchase a DVR to connect the cameras to, then you will be able to connect the dvr to your TV

Yes, its easy to see my Tivo shows on a laptop. To watch on a TV is a little more complicated in that I have to start the recorded tivo show on the laptop, disconnect, run to the tv and start remote viewing that way. Monsoon never could figure out how to get the tivo remote to appear on my tv for me to access my tivo shows.

You would need some type of video input or capture card. Example... http://www.ebay.com/bhp/pc-video-capture-card

It's extremely easy for anyone to install. Just make sure to buy a " security camera BNC video power cable surveillance DVR CCTV wire" that way you will be able to connect the camera to either a dvr or straight to your tv, whatever you prefer.

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.

I hooked mine up to a computer monitor. To get full system support the DVR needs internet connection also.

Possibly, but it is designed to be used with a cctv dvr and not a vcr. To hook up to a computer you would need a cctv add on card. They usually cost more than a stand alone cctv dvr.

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.

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!

No... You can hook it up to a tv monitor or computer but in order to view it on anything other than what it is hard wired to you will need internet connection ... It uses an ip address that you assign for when you wish to basically broad cast and you can set up a password to protect it from others viewing it ... Hope this helps !!

If you have a CPU with an HDMI hookup, it is easy...plug in and you are all set. If not, you will need a VGA to HDMI cable. Very inexpensive and can be found all over Amazon. Good luck!

Yes, I use mine for that. Don't expect setting up program recordings to be as easy as cable DVR. The set up for program recording is not very user friendly but it does the job. Antenna cable attachment is easy. Output to the TV is easy as well. Just read the user manual to set up.

Run the software that come with it.. It has a basic Dvr... The quality isn't the best but it is a great cam for the price Tpg

As long as the monitor has an HDMI port you can connect them and view it live.It also comes with a remote so you can start recording video whenever the action starts.
