Spy Cameras and Hidden Camera most often let you to view surveillance video on your TV or record on your DVR or VCR. There are several methods available but not many people know to make it work with their spy or hidden camera for Internet viewing that are reasonably priced and easy to hook up.
Here we talk about method #2 that will allow you to watch your hidden camera surveillance video over the Internet and will work with any spy cam or hidden camera out there. Not only can you view live spy camera video but you can create scheduled recordings also! You are limited to using one spy or hidden camera though, but it’s a good cheap solution.
Step #1: Use the USB USB PC Video Adapter Dongle also called the DVD Maker which plugs into your PC or Laptop’s USB port for easy installation. The following diagram show how connections are made to the USB adapter. You connect the wireless receiver RCA jacks from your spy or hidden camera to the inputs of the USB adapter through supplied RCA jacks. You will receive the message ‘Found New Hardware’ and brings up an installation dialog. Cancel out of the dialog and insert the software disk into your CD ROM drive. The main menu will appear and click on Install Drivers for the Dongle. Then you install the software called PVR Plus software supplied you can either view live video and audio from your hidden or spy camera or set up scheduled recorders easily. We recommend the Mini Wireless Color Spy Cam that was used for testing this method but it should work with any spy camera or hidden camera. PVR Plus which is the software that comes with the Dongle allows you to set several video input modes. To use it with your spy cam, set the video source to Composite in the PVR Plus settings window.
When you are at another computer you can remote into your PC at home and view your spy camera by using Windows feature called Terminal Services. With most widely used Windows PC operating systems like XP Pro, this is a standard application. This can be done by logging into your PC from Windows XP Pro “Remote Desktop Configuration”.

Once you are logged in remotely to the PC that the USB PC Video Adapter Dongle is connected to you will be able to see the video on your spy cam from any Internet browser from any remote location.
This presents another easy and inexpensive way to watch the surveillance video from your spy camera or hidden camera on a remote Internet connected PC. In future articles, we will describe other methods to allow you to watch your hidden camera or spy camera over the Internet.
