I need to create a court worthy case proving my neighbor is waking me with sharp sounds during early am hours. the sound only lasts a split second and he usually does it 2 or 3 times a night. He has a tape recording of a variety of sounds; horn, beep, chirp or crashing metal broadcast through a mic or amplifier device. the recorder is triggered by an electrical timer which is set randomly to eliminate a reliable pattern of detection.

i have an external color camera and mic outside my window. they are both directly connected to a usb 2.0 win xp converter / adapter which is connected to my computer's usb port. the audio is labeled by the adapter as a usb emp audio device, however my computer recognizes it as a sound max digital audio device. as a result audio is detected in my room but not outside where the mic is located.

how can i set web cam monitor to start at 12:00 am to 6:00 am and capture this sound when it occurrs? need date and time stamp. I would probably require streaming rather than noise detection because the sound will activate the device, but will not record the sound, so it will be lost.

Can anyone help, I will be grateful for a nights sleep?
