Most camcorders do not double as a "web camera" since the 24x7 possible operation or "duty cycle" would cause the parts to overheat and expire.
Look at getting a web cam.

I have a Sony MiniDV which I would like to setup to my laptop in order to watch my son's baseball games while I am away.
I have a wireless connection on the laptop that connects to the internet from anywhere I can get a signal (both baseball fields are covered in the footprint).
How do I get the camera connected to the laptop that will show me the game live through my ISP connection??
Do I need a software program in addition to the current connections??
Laptop is HP with Windows XP. Hardly any programs on it. Bought for wife who prefers desktop.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
