StreamZ products are controlled by Stream native software that runs on Windows XP/2000 installations. Stream remote software can also be installed on any platform with a web browser environment that supports Java 1.2 or greater. Encoding profiles are stored in standard XML format and can be written to or read from any application that supports XML, extending the capabilities of the StreamZ, so that it can be controlled by custom web based applications.
