What’s the advantage of giving control of my Streamer to someone else?
Too often meeting participants on the video screen are difficult to see in the dark,
looking seasick, or lit up like a deer caught in the headlights. Lack of good lighting
projects a poor image to anyone who is viewing the meeting, and this can especially be
a problem if customers or partners are participating. Giving control of your Streamer to
the meeting organizer allows them to adjust for the perfect look, harmonizing
everybody’s lighting so that everyone in the group looks their professional best.
Do I need to install drivers to use my Streamer?
No. You don’t need a driver to use your Streamer, but if you want to control it from your
computer (or let someone else control your Streamer remotely) you need to download
the Streamer application.
Does the person trying to control the Streamer remotely also need to download
the Streamer App?
Only the person with the Streamer connected to their Mac or PC needs the desktop
application. To control that person’s Streamer remotely, visit remote.streamer.rocks .
Ask the person with the Streamer to open the Control Streamer window in their
desktop application and find their 8-digit ID number. Enter that number in the Enter
Streamer Device ID box on the remote.streamer.rocks webpage.
Will my Streamer drain my laptop battery?
Your Streamer has to get power from somewhere, and if your laptop is running on
battery power, the Streamer will take power from the battery. The Streamer is
designed for maximum power efficiency so it will only consume whatever power is
needed to operate. If you are worried about battery life, you can reduce power
consumption by using the intensity sliders in the desktop application or the buttons on
the Streamer to reduce the light output intensity.
Can I power my Streamer from other USB power sources?
You can use any USB power source (powerbank or USB charging device, for example)
that can supply the 1.3 amps required by the Streamer when running at maximum
output intensity. As a general rule, a USB 2.0 or later source is required. If the maximum
current available from your USB power source is less than 1.3 amps your Streamer will
still work but maximum light intensity will be reduced.
Of course, you can only control your Streamer using the Streamer application (or allow
it to be controlled remotely) if you connect it via USB to a laptop.
Is remote control secure?
The remote.streamer.rocks webpage is encrypted, so all data transferred between our
remote servers and your desktop application is completely secure.
I get a security warning when downloading/installing the Streamer application on
a Windows PC, what should I do?
Windows sometimes flags applications that are safe. The Streamer desktop application
that is available from the streamer.rocks website is perfectly safe and does not create
