Questions from Reims
What does Silux Media cost in France?
Nothing to start: the server you run at home is free, remote streaming included. Plus, Pro and Cloud are optional, billed in EUR.
How much mobile data does a film use in Reims?
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.
Does it support French subtitles?
Every subtitle and audio track your files carry is offered in the player, in French or any other language.
Long winter evenings in Reims — 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.
Does it work on slower connections around Reims?
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.
Can I watch my films in Luxembourg?
Anywhere, Luxembourg included. Roaming allowances are small, which is where using under half the data pays off.
