Can this camera record and "feed live" to a tv monitor simultaneously?

It definitely can. It has a mini HDMI cinnection or you can use the Aduio / video connection.

Yes you can watch live TV while you record, but you are NOT recording on this box because it's not a DVR. This box records to your computer/laptop.

Yes, just plug the cable running from antenna into the unit. If you purchase a splitter you can go one cable into your t.v. and one into the unit. This will give you the ability to record and watch another channel at the same time.

The camera just gives a feed to the device you connect too. That device can just output a video signal or record if it has that function. But that is independent of this camera.

Yes. Live video can stream through HDMI output. You will use this feature to focus the lense if you change it out.

Eli: I don't think that this is possible. I have the unit in front of me, and the cable, which comes out of the display ( receiver ) - goes into three separate short cables with a SINGLE plug on each. The three short cables are labeled "power", "video", and "camera". I have the "common" type of unit, type "B". This DOES NOT have the recording feature on it, Also it doesn't have any switching feature to switch between different cameras........I hope that this helps......

Hey eyeball, I need the same thing basically. My Question is this: I would like to use this camera as an HD feed for a monitor. Can I leave it in record mode (without recording) and get a feed without it shutting off? Did it end up working okay for you??? If not what did you get?

No, unless it has its own input source such as a converter box or cable decoder. Then you can record anything you want and watch something else on the TV. You also need to split the input caple in order to have two separate inputs.

To my knowledge If you are thinking about recording live television the answer is no, since there is no video/audio input on the device. however there are applications that can supply you with pre-recorded material such as xbmc. Also if you meant to record programs on another device such as tivo etc using this as a controller yes you can. That being said this is based on Android and if you are technology savvy it is probably possible to use an application along with an external video/audio receiver to record anything but it requires work.

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.)

I can't find any way to do that. It seems to be set up to only record audio while recording video.

No, it has a video output so you can put the image on a monitor. You can't take pics either live feed only.

Unfortunately the answer is no, it will not output two video signals simultaneously.

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.

We have it connected to a digital DVR and it does record. Remember this unit only splits the signal from the cameras. So we use it to display on an extra monitor other than the one connected to DVR.

Yes, but keep in mind that you have to supply your own usb hard drive and you will be limited to recording whatever channels the antenna can pick up. Also you will not be able to record one thing and watch another. You will watch what is being recorded. The box does a pretty good job recording. I can't tell the difference between something that's been recorded and live tv. The naming scheme is basic and doesn't use show names so you may have a hard time finding a particular show you recorded if you record a lot of stuff. But all in all this box enables free hd recording of your local channels.
