Questions from Rangpur

Does it support Bengali subtitles?

Yes — name a subtitle file with its language code (for example .be.srt) and it's matched automatically; tracks inside the film are offered too.

How much mobile data does a film use in Rangpur?

About 1.0 GB per hour in full HD and roughly 0.6 GB in 720p, from our measurements — against 2.5–2.7 GB per HD hour on Jellyfin and Plex at the same picture quality.

What does Silux Media cost in Bangladesh?

Nothing to start: the server you run at home is free, remote streaming included. Plus, Pro and Cloud are optional, billed in USD.

Does it help on crowded city networks in Rangpur?

Yes. Using less data per minute means a stream needs less of a busy cell or Wi-Fi network — so it keeps playing when others start to buffer.

Can I watch my films in Bhutan?

Anywhere, Bhutan included. Roaming allowances are small, which is where using under half the data pays off.

Can I watch my own films in Rangpur?

Yes. Install the free Silux Media server on a computer at home and watch on your phone, tablet, laptop or TV — in Rangpur, elsewhere in Rangpur Division, or abroad.
