FLIR Tools supports Windows 8 (32-bit and 64-bit), does NOT support Windows 8 RT. You'll need the standard FLIR drivers, and also "FLIR IR Camera Player" from http://www.flir.com/thermography/americas/us/view/?id=50428 Keep in mind, all FLIR Ex video output is always 9 frames/second. The driver used needs to handle the FLIR as a USB webcam operating as a UVC device, and the FLIR E4 needs to be in "RNDIS and UVC" mode. (Go to Settings-&gt;Device settings-&gt;Camera Information-&gt;Model and then hold right for 12 seconds to get to the USB mode menu.)

I have Win8, and although it did work, it was an ugly experience to get it to do so, and the pic quality is very poor (5mp? NOT). Nothing but the cam comes in the package so you'll have to rely on generic drivers innate to your OS. If that's been working well for you (you haven't had to use disks to hunt for drivers) then it may work for you, it may not.

I don't if it works on windows 8. The cd IS the manual. My problem is you can only video for 29 minutes at a time then you have to change the batteries. Hope you have better luck with yours.

Hey, nobody answered the part about 'Windows 8.1' ...did this camera work for you using windows 8.1? (or has it worked for anyone using windows 10?

It's running fine on my win 8.1 computer. To do any copying of cds/dvds/blurays, or to watch movies of these, you will need separate software though. None is included.

I have windows 8.1 and it works fine, one thing I notice some times when transferring recordings to laptop with windows 8.1 it stop transferring I notice is because to save the battery the device turns off but turn it on again and try transfer again and it always work well. Hope that helped

No. I couldn't get the software to work with Windows 7 or Windows 8.1. It worked fine on Windows XP.

The unit does not record video but your computer can. Software is available from many vendors for free or at cost to record the output or you can have the units send snapshots of activity when motion occurs.

I have no problems playing the video on Windows 7. The included viewer software is ok, but it's not great. I downloaded a free viewer called Registrator (http://www.registratorviewer.com/download_en.html) that is 1000 times better. It allows you to view the GPS track on a map beside the video along with G-sensor data etc. I highly recommend it. The cam does have a very small amount of internal storage, but not very much (I don't remember the amount). It's not enough to record more than a few minutes of video probably. You'll need a SD card for any decent recording times. I've been using mine for about 7 months now and I love it. I have no problems playing the video on Windows 7.

The camera I received has yet to produce even one second of video. In other words, it's a lemon. Also found out that the camera is incompatible with Windows 8.1. New drivers are reportedly available, yet on Sony's support site the problem was not addressed.

Unused/new = yes. On-board video = yes. I assume it's compatible with Win 7 & 8, however I'm using Win XP.

I do not know about the surveillance feature but I do know that the cam works perfectly on my i7 Windows 8.1 machine.

Well i have used it on windows 7 64 bit, and it works fine for me. To be honest i would say away from easycap it only goes up to 480p. If you are looking to record gameplay i would try Hauppage HD PVR.
