I have :
1. WDTV Live working with wdlxtv 0.4.3.1
2. All media inside a D-Link NAS DNS-323 with 1.08 firmware
3. IP Address of WDTV: 192.168.1.103
4. IP Address of NAS: 192.168.1.101
I was using SMB (SAMBA) for folder share, but having problems when tried to stream 1080p mkv movies
I read that NFS would solve the problem
In order to start NFS server at the NAS,
1. Install NFS on the DNS-323 (you have to download the Add-On from the D-Link site and install/activate it on the Add-Ons section of the administration page of DNS-323)
2. Add on Network Access configuration of the DNS-323 the IPs of the machines which you want to have access to the drive, in our case is WDTV IP Address (192.168.1.103)
3. Add on Network Access configuration of the NAS the folder we would like to share, in our case: Volume_1/Movies
4. Provide RW permission
5. Set Root Squash=YES
6. At the Network Access configuration of the DNS-323 you can find the real path of the share folder Movies, in my case is /mnt/HD_a2/Movies
7. Later, if you have some problems connecting to the DNS-323 after a restart you may have to stop/restart the NFS service
Edit the net.mounts file of the WDTV with the following line in order to find the folder Movies under the Local Drives Menu
xmount 192.168.1.101:/mnt/HD_a2/Movies Movies nfs
Reboot the WDTV and voilá!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Streaming of 1080p mkv files work fine right now
The interesting thing is that you can have shared folders at the NAS using NFS and SAMBA at the same time.
You may have shared folders stored at a Window PC using SAMBA and the previous shared folders at the NAS using NFS, everything working at the same time
