Questions from Port Sudan

Will it work on the way to Omdurman?

Yes. On the roughly 669 km between Port Sudan and Omdurman, 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.

Can I watch my own films in Port Sudan?

Of course. Your own server holds the films; the apps for phones, tablets and TVs play them in Port Sudan or wherever you take them.

What does Silux Media cost in Sudan?

Nothing to start: the server you run at home is free, remote streaming included. Plus, Pro and Cloud are optional, billed in USD.

What's the busiest time for streaming in Port Sudan?

Evenings — roughly 19:00 to 23:00 in Port Sudan, or 17:00–21:00 UTC. That's when a stream that needs fewer megabits has the edge.

Does it support Arabic and English subtitles?

Every subtitle and audio track your files carry is offered in the player, in Arabic and English or any other language.

Can I watch my films in Saudi Arabia?

Anywhere, Saudi Arabia included. Roaming allowances are small, which is where using under half the data pays off.
