How to Connect A Spy Camera To Your TV

In order to view or record a spy camera image you need a monitor. This can be a “CCTV” monitor or a regular TV with RCA style Inputs (usually Yellow Red and White) on the back or front of your TV.

If you are using a “CCTV” style monitor just plug the video wire from the spy camera into the video “input” of the monitor. You will have a picture automatically. Some “CCTV” monitors will use an "A/B" Switch.


If you are using a “TV” or “VCR” you will need to tell the TV/VCR which input to use. Plug the spy camera into “Video In” on the TV/VCR (Usually Yellow) and use the Video selector switch to choose the correct input. (This is Usually found in the menu commands) Check the manufactures instructions if you need to.) Some VCRs use a "Input button on the front of the machine or on the remote. The input name can V1 V2 or L1 L2 or AUX or Game. There can be combinations of them as well.


If the VCR is connected to The TV using a Cable TV type wire, plug the spy camera into the VCR yellow inputs and use the VCR controls to set the input. (The input on many VCRS is L1 or L2)

If you are using a computer monitor follow the instructions that came with your video card or monitor to view the spy camera picture on a PC monitor.

Some newer TVS have a Component setting as well. It can be frustrating trying to figure out the correct one.

Here are some tips to help you get started.

• The TV and VCR you Use must have RCA type plugs.
• Have all the remote controls in one spot when you are ready to set up the camera.
• Make sure you have male to male and female to female RCA style patch cords.
• A flashlight and small pliers may help as well

Setting up your own spy camera may take you a few minutes.

Build Your Own Hidden Camera

Build You Own Hidden Camera

Return To Spyville.com

Building your first hidden camera requires some small amount of thought. You need to be able to use basic tools including a drill and a glue gun, possibly a soldering iron, clippers electrical tape, a test meter and general ingenuity.

The first step is to decide what you are going to build the hidden camera into. This is not as easy as you think. First you need an item that is large enough to hide a camera in. Sometimes you don't know until you take it apart. Wall clocks and alarm clocks are popular because they have alot of room inside in many cases. Your hidden camera should be:

• Something that will seem to belong where you are going to use it.
  (A stuffed animal may be good for your baby's room or keeping an eye on your nanny but not so good for your office)


• As stated something with enough room to fit a camera in.


• Something inexpensive enough so you can get a few of them .
  (You will need at least one extra in case you break it or make a mistake)


• The tools mentioned above plus several others that may be required for your particular project.

Now to the camera. A black and white mini camera or (chip camera) should be used for low light applications. Its important to get a good camera not just the smallest but the better quality. This will be important later in details. A mini color camera can be used if you are sure that you will always be using your hidden camera in a well light area. Color cameras need real light to preform well again make sure that you choose not just by size but quality.

You will need to know the voltage of the camera so you can give it power. No matter if you use a wired hidden camera or a wireless hidden camera you will need to give it power. Batteries are possible for some hidden cameras but will not last very long. You are much better off running the camera from the devices power. This is something that should only be attempted by a professional Its not a good idea and we do not recommend it.

Once you have the item for your hidden camera picked out you will need the small camera the drill and the glue. DO NOT get Glue on the lens it ruins the camera and voids the warranty.

So now we have to choose a location for the camera inside the device. Make a cardboard mock up of the camera so you can check to see if it will fit in the spot you would like. Do not try to force it, mini cameras do not take well to being wedged into a location.

Once you have determined the location you need to drill a hole. This is best done in a dark area or behind an existing opening.

You will need to have the mini camera plugged in and running. (so you can see the picture).

After drilling the hole, carefully hold the camera in the location you choose. Make sure that you have a good picture through the hole. The next step is to glue. It would be best if you had help for this part as it is not easy to hold and glue. Make sure you still have the camera on and check the picture often to prevent vignetting. ( This is when you have a half black circle at the edge of the picture because the camera is not centered on the hole. This also happens if the hole is to small, you will have a black ring around the entire picture).

You have now created your own hidden camera.
