Thank you for choosing STR3EM
Please read the following information to learn more about using this system.
STR3EM is designed for the Windows 7 operating system and compatible with Windows Embedded 7, Vista, and XP.
Mac OS X users can use Bootcamp.
Installation
Download and install the free STR3EM application from our homepage at www.str3em.com
Java and the Haali Media Splitter applications are required. If you don’t have these components already installed on your PC, then please select the “Yes” options to install Java and the Haali Media Splitter during the STR3EM application installation.
For AC3 and DTS audio playback, you should install the AC3Filter application at http://ac3filter.net/
CoreCodec CoreAVC is required for Vista and XP to play most of our file types: http://corecodec.com/products/coreavc
IMPORTANT!
STR3EM is designed for clean Windows 7 installs comprising the STR3EM, Haali Media Splitter, and AC3Filter applications. STR3EM works best with the default WMV and H.264 codecs in Windows 7.
For XP and Vista users: the CCCP codec pack may work but is not part of the official configuration of the STR3EM system. We suggest investing in CoreAVC.
The K-Lite codec pack should never be used on a STR3EM system.
Any other “media splitters” other than Haali should not be used on the same machine with STR3EM.
Please note: we do not support systems with unofficial configurations and assume you can uninstall any conflicting codec packs or splitters that may cause any problems with playback performance of STR3EM files.
