I haven't moved to 4.3 as yet..
But there are plenty of threads on xbmc over at the synology forums..
Might pay to head there and have a look..
I haven't been over there for a month or so ..so don't know if someone has found a work around as yet..

I have post another thread into synology forums where people is having same troubles.
We can access now to NFS shares only adding sources manually to the sources.xml file.
They problem is when we want to add a nfs server via browser option.
By the way, how did you edit the shares to access via Local IP?
I have my NAS less than a week and i am very new to NFS.
thanks.

I´m spanish and my control panel is in spanish, so the options are similar to:
Control panel->shared folders
Select the folder to share via NFS
Button privileges->NFS privileges
Button create
Host IP: 192.168.1.*
OK
Of course, NFS service is enabled in panel control->win/mac/nfs->nfs service
By the way, I dont use NFS with XBMC (I use samba). The problem with samba is in Two Syabas popcornhour that dont see samba workgroup, not PC´s. With NFS solved the problem for now

For editing the wiki you simply just request an account via the "log-in" link at the top right corner. Your account will be created, and you can easily change the text on most pages. I'd change it myself to help out, but I'm a bit confused about what actually needs to be changed.

thx ned, i couldn't understand you first time sorry..
The wiki part that is outdated is the "synology" part because in DSM 4.3 synology has change some options adding a text box with "security" options.
In this new box you dont need to disable via "vi" or ssh the insecure_locks option neither.
The problem is that by now, with the new dsm 4.3 you can't browse to the NFS folders via XBMC, there is some kind of problem.
But you can add manually the folder's path and all files and sources works ok.
There is a thread in synology forums and we hope soon that problem will be solved soon.
i can send you a screenshot if you want.
thanks

If you updated your Synology NAS to the latest 4.3.3776 then you will no longer be able to 'browse' NFS shares. NFS still works and shares can be added manually if you know the full path. Synology are aware of the issue, have been able to replicate it internally and have indicated that they may release a patch.
FYI, the NFS paths if you need to add them manually (assuming default volumes) are:
volume1/video
volume1/music
volume1/photo
Therefore full path would be displayed as nfs://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/volume1/video

Synology have released a patch that I've tested on my DS712+ and it works. They've advised the patch will make it to the next DSM update in about 4 weeks.

There are different patches depending on what processor your DS is using so probably best to request direct from Synology.
