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

Can I watch my own films in Bremen?
Yes — put the server on a PC, Mac, NAS or Raspberry Pi at home, add your folders, and your films play on any screen in Bremen.
Long winter evenings in Bremen — 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.
