Questions from Mandalay
Will it work on the way to Naypyidaw?
It does. Between Mandalay and Naypyidaw (about 248 km) the picture follows the signal down and back up, so the film doesn't pause.
What's the busiest time for streaming in Mandalay?
Usually 19:00–23:00 local time (12:30–16:30 UTC), when most people are online. Silux Media steps quality down within seconds if the network gets crowded, instead of buffering.
Does it help on crowded city networks in Mandalay?
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 Burmese subtitles?
Every subtitle and audio track your files carry is offered in the player, in Burmese or any other language.
How much mobile data does a film use in Mandalay?
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.
Can I watch my films in Bangladesh?
Yes — the server stays at home in Mandalay and you watch from anywhere, including Chittagong about 440 km away. On roaming data the lower data use makes a real difference.
