I just got a Insignia® - 5.0MP High-Definition Digital Camcorder with 3" Swivel LCD Screen. I was wondering if there is anyway I could hook this to my PC running XP and use it as a webcam to chat with others or anyway to hook it up to my PC and leave it running recording so I can view it from work while it's at home running on my home pc acting as a security camera?

I have pets and I want to put it in their room running in the day while I'm gone so when I'm at work I can see them. Any possible way? and what software will I need to get this done?

I would like to view from my iphone also if possible.

Just hook up the USB cable and it should work.

Hook up the USB cable from the camera to the pc, put the camera in record mode and windows should do the rest.

I'll try that. I doubt that will work though.
