Questions from Tegucigalpa

What does Silux Media cost in Honduras?

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 Nicaragua?

Anywhere, Nicaragua included. Roaming allowances are small, which is where using under half the data pays off.

What's the busiest time for streaming in Tegucigalpa?

Usually 19:00–23:00 local time (01:00–05:00 UTC), when most people are online. Silux Media steps quality down within seconds if the network gets crowded, instead of buffering.

How much mobile data does a film use in Tegucigalpa?

Measured: 1.0 GB per HD hour with Silux Media versus 2.7 GB with Plex for an identical picture — the same film, under half the data.

Does it work on slower connections around Tegucigalpa?

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 own films in Tegucigalpa?

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