i'm using hanewin nfs server on PC. when i enter command on azbox such as

mount -t nfs 192.168.1.201:/e/dreambox /DATA/movie -o nolock,rsize=32768,wsize=32768

it mounts OK, but the read / write size is always 8192 and not 32768.

The hanewin server was set to 8192 which i believed was for better playback of stored mkv's etc but i changed this to 32768 as i'm trying to get recording to the nfs share to work. i restarted the nfs server after making the change but no good,

any suggestions?

It may be caused by the equipment between your client and server
try -t udp to see if it gets better

the server will use udp by default as shown by the response to a mount query by just entering the mount command on its own

192.168.1.201:/e/dreambox on /DATA/movie type nfs (rw,v3,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard ,nolock,proto=udp,addr=192.168.1. 201)


i had in any case added a udp option in my command to see if i can get the rsize and wsize to change, no deal.

i tried your suggestion:
AZBox[~]$ mount -t nfs 192.168.1.201:/e/dreambox /DATA/movie

get same output as above


will check my Broadband router, maybe there is something in there

Try to put 65535 in "Maximum NFS transfer size" and check all boxes in the "NFS" tab, after that do "Restart Server" in the "Exports" tab.

And remount/restart azbox.
