Questions from Bursa
What's the busiest time for streaming in Bursa?
Usually 19:00–23:00 local time (16:00–20:00 UTC), when most people are online. Silux Media steps quality down within seconds if the network gets crowded, instead of buffering.
What does Silux Media cost in Turkey?
The self-hosted server is free forever, including remote streaming. Optional plans are billed in EUR on our website — never inside the apps.
Will it work on the way to Istanbul?
It does. Between Bursa and Istanbul (about 91 km) the picture follows the signal down and back up, so the film doesn't pause.
How much mobile data does a film use in Bursa?
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 Bulgaria?
Yes — the server stays at home in Bursa and you watch from anywhere, including Varna about 349 km away. On roaming data the lower data use makes a real difference.
Can I watch my own films in Bursa?
Of course. Your own server holds the films; the apps for phones, tablets and TVs play them in Bursa or wherever you take them.
