Questions from Ahvaz
Does it support Persian subtitles?
Yes — name a subtitle file with its language code (for example .pe.srt) and it's matched automatically; tracks inside the film are offered too.
Can I watch my films in Iraq?
Anywhere, Iraq included. Roaming allowances are small, which is where using under half the data pays off.
What does Silux Media cost in Iran?
The self-hosted server is free forever, including remote streaming. Optional plans are billed in USD on our website — never inside the apps.
How much mobile data does a film use in Ahvaz?
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.
Will it work on the way to Isfahan?
It does. Between Ahvaz and Isfahan (about 319 km) the picture follows the signal down and back up, so the film doesn't pause.
What's the busiest time for streaming in Ahvaz?
Usually 19:00–23:00 local time (15:30–19:30 UTC), when most people are online. Silux Media steps quality down within seconds if the network gets crowded, instead of buffering.
