Questions from Valencia
Does it work on slower connections around Valencia?
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.
What's the busiest time for streaming in Valencia?
Usually 19:00–23:00 local time (18:00–22:00 UTC in winter), when most people are online. Silux Media steps quality down within seconds if the network gets crowded, instead of buffering.
Does it support Spanish and Catalan 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.
How much mobile data does a film use in Valencia?
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.
What does Silux Media cost in Spain?
The self-hosted server is free forever, including remote streaming. Optional plans are billed in EUR on our website — never inside the apps.
Can I watch my films in Algeria?
Yes — the server stays at home in Valencia and you watch from anywhere, including Oran about 420 km away. On roaming data the lower data use makes a real difference.
