Installing the Device Drivers and the Stradis MPEG-2 Decoder
Application
The Stradis MPEG-2 File Player Application (SMPEGDEC.EXE) is
provided for testing and evaluation purposes only. If your Stradis
decoder is part of a third-party system, follow the installation
instructions provided by your system provider; DO NOT FOLLOW
THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Doing so may render the third-party
software inoperative.
1. Stradis Decoder Drivers are available at our website: http://www.stradis.com
2. Download the appropriate driver installers.
3. It is strongly recommended, for correct installation of the hardware and associated
driver, that you reboot the computer and run no other program before using the
setup program.
4. Access Device Manager by right-clicking on My Computer, follow the context menu
to Properties, and then select the Hardware tab. Click the “Driver Signature”
button. You must set “File Signature Verification” to either “Warn” or “Ignore.”
5. Run the installer program.
6. Enter the following install password if prompted. The password is case-sensitive:
mpeg4u
7. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation.
8. If you are installing this software release on a system that had a Stradis device
driver version 0.95 or earlier installed, the installation program will ask you to
manually remove it using Device Manager. Expand the “Sound and Video
Controller” section, select “Stradis Professional MPEG-2 Decoder,” and right-click
and select “Uninstall.”
Note: If you are asked by the installation software to REMOVE AN OLD
DRIVER, it is very important to DO SO BEFORE REBOOTING. Otherwise the
installation may become confused and a number of files will need to be
manually removed.
9. Reboot the computer. Windows “Plug and Play” will now load the drivers
automatically. If you set “Driver Signature” to “Warn”, you will be warned that
Microsoft has not digitally signed the Stradis Driver. Click “OK” to complete the
installation.
10. Proceed to SMpegDec User Guide.
