- yabbiman - 2011-06-19 Just out of curiosity: why would one want to use NFS instead of SMB? are there advantages for the ATV2 to make use of NFS? - i5Js - 2011-06-19 yabbiman Wrote:Just out of curiosity: why would one want to use NFS instead of SMB? are there advantages for the ATV2 to make use of NFS?

You're right, but I have tested it without mobile user... - Memphiz - 2011-06-19 if you want to compile it yourself you have to use the new darwin depends ... ios-depends doesn't build the required libnfs ... darwin-depends is the new build system and it is officially activated since some hours ... so get a new git clone and follow the new readme for getting nfs in your own builds... - Memphiz - 2011-06-19 rogerthis Wrote:What the likelyhood that some similar will made for smb? its already there since years ... don't know what problem you have? - Tenny - 2011-06-20 I think my issue isn't XBMC, but perhaps someone can toss me an idea... So I have two external drives and the internal hard drive. The internal works perfect, but both externals have issues (XBMC see's four shares, each of them in exportsshared (3 sources according to XBMC). /etc/fstab: Code: #USB-Drives /etc/exports Code: /media/Media/ *(rw,all_squash,insecure,async,no_subtree_check,no_acl) Code: tenny@tentop:/media$ ls -l Now when I start XBMC it starts to scrape (and the output looks like this for all movies): Code: 15:43:27 T:147566592 M:125394944 DEBUG: NFS: Connected to server 192.168.1.15 and export media (chunks: r/w 131072/131072) Then once it switches to the other drive... Code: 15:43:33 T:147566592 M:125235200 DEBUG: NFS: Connected to server 192.168.1.15 and export media (chunks: r/w 131072/131072) Both are configured identical... If I browse "Files", both of the externals show nothing, where as the tvfailed works. Thus leading me to believe it's something to do with it being external & it's permissions. Also if I try to play one of the movies that had success above (fasthash), it says it's no longer there... Any help would be greatly appreciated! - haffi - 2011-06-20 Might be because of your ntfs file system on the external drives Tenny Wrote:I think my issue isn't XBMC, but perhaps someone toss me an idea...

Loosing the ability to plug into my Win7 boxes and read/write can make things a bit harder... not much though. - Memphiz - 2011-06-20 ntfs using ntfs-3g is special in conjunction with nfs as i remember ... maybe google can help you there ... but it would be good if you could upload the full debug logs ... your posted lines are not fully visible here (ipad)... so please add them to pastebin.com and put the link in here - Tenny - 2011-06-20 Memphiz Wrote:ntfs using ntfs-3g is special in conjunction with nfs as i remember ... maybe google can help you there ... but it would be good if you could upload the full debug logs ... your posted lines are not fully visible here (ipad)... so please add them to pastebin.com and put the link in here I don't think I have the full log anymore (I delete them all the time). I am already doing the switch to Ext4 so I can't just try again. If I didn't delete the log yet, I'll post it though. - Memphiz - 2011-06-20 I think i see your problem now ... access rights ... as it states in the log file ...: Code: drwxrwxr-- 1 tenny plugdev 57344 2011-06-19 08:25 HDMovies As i mentioned earlier in this thread - when u use all_sqash - all accesses are done as user nobody ... so you should give user nobody the needed rights. You have tenny - as owner, plugdev as group - and world has no rights. Nobody would be treated as world in that case ... so nobody has no rights *cool hrhr* ... thats the prob NFS vs SMB - wallace47931 - 2011-06-21 Has anyone tested the transfer rates? I also own an xtreamer like a previous poster and found NFS was quicker than SMB... Ive tried the ATV2 and XBMC using smb, upnp and ftp and all buffer when im using it in wireless mode. Its better when i connec it wired but i was wondering if there is a comparison yet? btw the xtreamer does not buffer in nfs when wireless,nor did my wdtv but atv2 does on same files. John |
