[mythtv-users] remote frontends and nfs

[Allan Wilson]

I just upgraded my dedicated myth server to ubuntu edgy and now my two
frontends can't play video. The video tries to play but there are to many
prebuffering pauses. Anything with video(livetv, recorded shows, and movies)
all have this problem. Other that Myth runs great. I have nfs setup but saw
where many others where having this problem. Below are my errors and what I
have in /etc/fstab

0: start_time: 0.036 duration: 312.946
1: start_time: 0.026 duration: 312.921
stream: start_time: 0.289 duration: 3477.285 bitrate=5190 kb/s

2006-11-07 22:54: 02.097 NVP: Prebuffer wait timed out 10 times.

and in /etc/fstab

192.168.0.10:/video/    /video/    nfs    rsize=8192,wsize=8192,soft
,timeo=14,actimeo=0,intr,async,nfsvers=3,bg,tcp 0 0

I made sure my nfs server was running in async mode and everything is
gigabit full duplex checked with ethtools. Any ideas or how does everyone
else connect their frontend only machines to the backend server? Everything
works great on the combo backend/frontend. Thanks for the help
