Questions from Odense

Long winter evenings in Odense — will a NAS or old PC cope?

Yes. Silux Media runs on ordinary computers and can prepare lean versions of your library overnight at low priority, so several people can watch on dark evenings without a powerful machine.

Can I watch my own films in Odense?

Of course. Your own server holds the films; the apps for phones, tablets and TVs play them in Odense or wherever you take them.

What's the busiest time for streaming in Odense?

Evenings — roughly 19:00 to 23:00 in Odense, or 18:00–22:00 UTC. That's when a stream that needs fewer megabits has the edge.

Does it support Danish subtitles?

Yes. Subtitle files next to your films, and the subtitle and audio tracks inside them, appear in the player in any language.

Does it work on slower connections around Odense?

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.

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