Questions from Salzburg
Will it work on the way to Linz?
Yes. On the roughly 108 km between Salzburg and Linz, the app re-checks the connection every three seconds and keeps playing — dropping to a lighter quality in weak spots and climbing back up after.
Does it work on slower connections around Salzburg?
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.
Does it support German subtitles?
Every subtitle and audio track your files carry is offered in the player, in German or any other language.
What's the busiest time for streaming in Salzburg?
Evenings — roughly 19:00 to 23:00 in Salzburg, or 18:00–22:00 UTC. That's when a stream that needs fewer megabits has the edge.
Can I watch my films in Germany?
Yes — the server stays at home in Salzburg and you watch from anywhere, including Munich about 116 km away. On roaming data the lower data use makes a real difference.
