[VU+ Duo] NFS Playback Problem with Chase Play

[pacha2]

Yes I have a USB in the client box I could test that, but I'm not clear what the test would prove?

You can see the time elapsed/remaining duration is constantly being updated by the client so as mentioned it is probably giving the NFS client some issues.

I've actually managed to stop this being updated every 3 seconds by using the NFS mount parameter actimeo=90, which allows it to update every 90 seconds. However the NFS playback issue remains the same.

I have access to a friends Duo today, so I will update that and run some more tests. This should then prove that the DM800 is the issue and I can justify switching that to an XP1000.

Using 2 Duo boxes with NFS the chase play scenario works flawlessly.

So it seems the DM800HD is not man enough for this type of playback.

Thanks for all your input

I have tried multiple images on that box too. I am currently using an OpenPii image with the 2.6.18 kernal.
When testing I can see rpciod/0 taking up 10-20% cpu but I didn't think that was too high, it obviously is.
Where as the Duo's CPU looks hardly touched during NFS "chase play" playback.
