Questions from Florianópolis
Does it work on slower connections around Florianópolis?
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 Brazil?
The self-hosted server is free forever, including remote streaming. Optional plans are billed in USD on our website — never inside the apps.
Can I watch my films in Paraguay?
Yes — the server stays at home in Florianópolis and you watch from anywhere, including Ciudad del Este about 650 km away. On roaming data the lower data use makes a real difference.
Will it work on the way to Curitiba?
It does. Between Florianópolis and Curitiba (about 252 km) the picture follows the signal down and back up, so the film doesn't pause.
Does it support Portuguese subtitles?
Every subtitle and audio track your files carry is offered in the player, in Portuguese or any other language.
How much mobile data does a film use in Florianópolis?
