Questions from Kutaisi
Will it work on the way to Batumi?
It does. Between Kutaisi and Batumi (about 112 km) the picture follows the signal down and back up, so the film doesn't pause.
What does Silux Media cost in Georgia?
The self-hosted server is free forever, including remote streaming. Optional plans are billed in USD on our website — never inside the apps.
Long winter evenings in Kutaisi — 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 Kutaisi?
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 Georgian subtitles?
Every subtitle and audio track your files carry is offered in the player, in Georgian or any other language.
Can I watch my films in Armenia?
Anywhere, Armenia included. Roaming allowances are small, which is where using under half the data pays off.
