And i am using on the server:
/data/mythstorage  192.168.1.0/24(ro,async) tv-server(rw,sync) 
192.168.1.9(rw,sync)

(so the same)

The clients do:
server:/data/mythstorage  /data/mythstorage      nfs   
rsize=32768,wsize=32768,hard,intr,tcp,actimeo=0  0  0

You might want to try that.
The tcp option is especially valuable if you have a mixed speed network.
