Most digital cameras can be used for web cam streaming?
You would have to have it hooked to power, or swap the batteries all the time... plus other problems...
I'd probably get a cheap X10 or something if I were OP

Use an x10 with motion detecting software

How would I hook the camera up to my rig though?

Sounds like you don't really need anything professional, how bout a webcam? With its half decent quality you could even record hours of your security cam to review later.

I thought x10 had USB hook up devices. You can use a web cam too.

A webcam with good software just might fit the bill... The next question is, what software is good?

Already tried that :/ Mother got upset because she feels I shouldn't have to lock the door in my own house. She's right, but it's a good fix! I have found an old webcam laying around and will google the software, thanks again guys![]()
