Questions from Delhi
Can I watch my own films in Delhi?
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 Delhi.
What's the busiest time for streaming in Delhi?
Evenings — roughly 19:00 to 23:00 in Delhi, or 13:30–17:30 UTC. That's when a stream that needs fewer megabits has the edge.
Will it work on the way to Agra?
Yes. On the roughly 181 km between Delhi and Agra, the app re-checks the connection every three seconds and keeps playing — dropping to a lighter quality in weak spots and climbing back up after.
What does Silux Media cost in India?
Nothing to start: the server you run at home is free, remote streaming included. Plus, Pro and Cloud are optional, billed in USD.
Does it help on crowded city networks in Delhi?
Yes. Using less data per minute means a stream needs less of a busy cell or Wi-Fi network — so it keeps playing when others start to buffer.
Does it support Hindi, English and Bengali subtitles?
Every subtitle and audio track your files carry is offered in the player, in Hindi, English and Bengali or any other language.
