Can I simply connect to TV without the use of a DVR?

Eric, yes and no. You will need a power supply for the camera and a BNC-A/V connector to plug it into your tv, if your tv has that kind of input. I'm sure they make that type of connector conversion.

No. You need to connect to a dvr or something of that nature. There is no need to install software onto the dvr

It's supposed to connect to your DVR. NO software, because the DVR software controls PT function.

No, not directly. It needs a Networked DVR or a camera card in the computer.

No. This camera must be connected to a dvr. You may be looking for an ip camera.

Definitely don't have to, you could run wire to a device like vcr, security recorder, or any other devices. Another option instead of running wire, get a wireless device that connects to your recorder.

If your laptop has HDMI or rgb port you can. If not you may need to buy a adapter. Also if you have internet, connect the DVR to it and view cameras remotely

You will need a usb DVR dongle. It will be a USB that has rca connectors on it.

You can connect the camera directly to tv's av input or to dvr. Mine is just connected to tv.

If you add a usb tv tuner (for example from Hauppauge), a "live tv" menu appears with simple dvr capabilities. More info is at www.gigaom.com/2012/11/13/cord-cutters-wd-tv-live-ota-dvr

The dvr itself needs a Ethernet connection (it has no wifi connecting ability's), you can connect with wifi on your iphone/android/computer with wifi a note: the best free on the iphone i have found is called mobile-eye others i've downloaded have/show stuttering frames or fail to connect point blank :)

Just plug the DVR into your tv and mount the camera where you need it. Works great signal is good also.

It will work fine. You will not be able to review it remotely, but can play it back manually from the DVR.

No, I don't think you can. You have to have cable and a DVR BOX. I do like this DVD/ VCR-RECORDER. I HAVE 4 OF THEM.

No. The best way to do that is wirelessly through a device called Apple TV (it's not a TV), which connects to your TV.

My system is connected to a flat screen. You need a dvr recorder box. I have a vga cabke from my box to the tv.

You have to hook it up to a DVR of some sort. I had an existing camera system with a DVR so I just bought the cords to connect it to that
