Questions from Mendoza

Between about 7 and 11 pm local time. Quality re-adjusts every three seconds, so a crowded evening network means a lighter picture for a moment, not a frozen one.

Yes — the 468 km trip to Córdoba is no problem: the stream adapts to each mast you pass instead of stopping.
Can I watch my films in Chile?
Yes. Over the border in Santiago (around 179 km), your library streams from home exactly as it does in Mendoza.
Can I watch my own films in Mendoza?
Yes. Install the free Silux Media server on a computer at home and watch on your phone, tablet, laptop or TV — in Mendoza, elsewhere in Argentina, or abroad.
Does it work on slower connections around Mendoza?
Yes. Silux Media plays HD from about 0.7 Mbps and keeps going below 0.3 Mbps at lower quality — built for fixed-wireless, satellite and rural mobile links.
What does Silux Media cost in Argentina?
Free. Running the server at home in Mendoza costs nothing, and the apps are free; paid plans only add managed extras.
