OpenELEC Beta 4.95.2 and more

[Hekser]

Using OpenELEC-imx6.arm-4.95.3. Try to mount remote windows smb share.
mount -t cifs -o username=user,password=pass //192.168.2.2/d/video /storage/videos/
Ok.
But it used smb1, and transfer speed is too low(about 10mb/s). How can i force to use smb2 protocol?

No idea. Check wiki. Also try mouting in kodi itself not from command line. Wireless or wired connection?

[Hekser]

wired. 1Gbs
One more try:

Code: Select All Code

mount -t cifs -o username=user,password=pass,vers=2 //192.168.2.2/d/video /storage/videos/
mount: mounting //192.168.2.2/d/video on /storage/videos/ failed: Invalid argument

=(

Also try mouting in kodi itself not from command line.

And how is the speed?

[Hekser]

another experiments, using kodi to access the files:
proto speed
smb ~5-10mbs
ftp ~5-10mbs
nfs ~10mbs

So, video-files, larger than 4Gb, are unplayable

The best result: download file over ftp to ramdisk on TBS(20-30mbs).

Update:
iperf results

Some old versions. There was no real change in Gotham lately. Helix is the future.

Thanks!

I got it working at last with one of the older versions, though one of the programs required a symbolic link from "/storage/.kodi"

I was wondering about setting up my matrix as a small RAID5 server with three sata hdds... has anyone had any experience with mpcie to sata controller cards such as http://www.conrad.com/ce/en/product/1195021/SATA-III-2PORT-MINI-PCIE-KARTE?ref=list/ ?

I can't read from the web page if linux drivers even exist. What are the chances of the card working in openelec? Does Matrix openelec have any pcie support outside of dtv cards?

Ahrlad, forget raid support on openelec. Use "normal" distro for this.

[Ahrlad]

All right, all right, I will. But it would be so very cool
