Great films shouldn't need great broadband.
Why we built Silux Media
Billions of people watch on connections that the big streaming platforms treat as an afterthought: rural broadband, satellite, crowded mobile networks, and home uploads of a few megabits. Media servers like Plex, Jellyfin and Emby were built for fibre — and they buffer everywhere else.
We set ourselves one measurable goal: the same picture as the market leaders with at least 40% less data. We measured it against live servers, frame by frame, and beat it at every setting. Then we made the whole engine free for anyone who runs their own server.
Edge-first
Your server does the heavy lifting, not our cloud. That keeps streaming private, fast and free.
Honest numbers
We publish our method and our competitors' results — including where they're still better than us.
Free where it matters
Self-hosting, remote streaming and the bandwidth engine will never be paywalled.
