Hello everyone,
I use my current computer (a windows machine) to watch my house when I'm at work and I use my built in webcam as the camera...I have my screen to turn off after X amount of minutes but the camera/computer remain on and I'm able to pull up a web browser or on my phone wherever I am and I can see a live stream of my house.
I wanted to know if this would work the same way with my iMac when I buy it? I want to be able to have the camera on/computer staying on but the screen to turn off for obvious reasons (no need to run the screen if I'm not there looking at it Is this possible to do or will the camera but shut off automatically when the screen turns off?
Thanks
