Questions from León
Does it support Spanish subtitles?
Yes — name a subtitle file with its language code (for example .sp.srt) and it's matched automatically; tracks inside the film are offered too.
Does it help on crowded city networks in León?
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.
How much mobile data does a film use in León?
Roughly 0.6 GB for an hour of 720p and 1.0 GB in 1080p, so a two-hour film in HD fits in about 2.0 GB of your plan.
What's the busiest time for streaming in León?
Between about 7 and 11 pm local time. Quality re-adjusts every three seconds, so a crowded evening network means a lighter picture for a moment, not a frozen one.
Can I watch my own films in León?
Of course. Your own server holds the films; the apps for phones, tablets and TVs play them in León or wherever you take them.
Will it work on the way to Querétaro?
Yes — the 147 km trip to Querétaro is no problem: the stream adapts to each mast you pass instead of stopping.
