Questions from Limerick
What does Silux Media cost in Ireland?
Nothing to start: the server you run at home is free, remote streaming included. Plus, Pro and Cloud are optional, billed in EUR.
Long winter evenings in Limerick — 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 Limerick?
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.
Will it work on the way to Galway?
Yes. On the roughly 73 km between Limerick and Galway, 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.
Does it support English and Irish subtitles?
Yes. Subtitle files next to your films, and the subtitle and audio tracks inside them, appear in the player in any language.

About 1.0 GB per hour in full HD and roughly 0.6 GB in 720p, from our measurements — against 2.5–2.7 GB per HD hour on Jellyfin and Plex at the same picture quality.
