Does Not Work!
|
I bought a Streamzap just to control the volume on my computer while playing internet radio, and to mute the commercials. I don't need fancy control over multimedia applications.
I have not been able to even accomplish the simple volume control I hoped for.
This product contains 3 parts - a remote that looks much like a TV remote, a receiver which connects to the computer's USB port, and software. I believe the problem I have is a faulty USB plug on the receiver I got, because most of the time the unit does not show up on the computer. Other devices like USB disks and a flash disk all work fine on the very same USB port on the computer.
It also took multiple attempts to install the software, perhaps because of intermittent connectivity with the receiver. Finally, if the receiver does show up on the computer, Windows frequently requires me to re-install the drivers. I thought USB was "plug and play" not "plug and re-install."
What has me REALLY frustrated is the COMPLETE lack of support by Streamzap. They don't "do" phones, so your two support alternatives are to consult their "knowledge base" or send them email.
Since I've had my unit their "knowledge base" has been unavailable for multiple technical reasons, and they don't apear to care.
The one email response I got from their "support" person accomplished exactly nothing, and days have passed since I replied to him.
The bottom line: Streamzap products do not work and Streamzap has no intention of backing up their products or supporting their customers.
I'll probably just send this unit back to Streamzap in very small pieces so it'll go into their landfill, where it belongs, instead of mine. |
