connecting to NAS via NFS - motnot - 2024-06-15
I think I'm trying to set up a network share via NFS but it's not working.
I was using samba on windows, but the transfer speeds are really slow in linux. I think I either need to use NFS which I'm trying or make samba faster somehow?

So you are using Linux?
Are you mounting it via Kodi or via the OS itself?
I have no problems.
The only nag for when mounting it via Kodi is that external players may have hard time reading the movie files.
So I do mount it via OS.
Test mounting it manually (needs to be done every time after boot), type this in terminal i.e:
$ sudo mount -t nfs YOUR_SERVER_IP_ADRESS:/volume1/Movies Movies
You need to have a folder named Movies in the directory you are running the command from.
