List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , List-Archive: - I have the following setup: DBox (DVB-C receiver, 10BaseT) connected to 100MBit-Switch connected over 10m TP to 100MBit-Switch connected over 5m TP to Netwinder (Linux server, 100BaseT) - Export options on the Netwinder (Kernel 2.4.19-rmk7-nw1): dbox2(rw,insecure,all_squash) - Mount options on the DBox (Kernel 2.4.31-dbox2) to stream the DVB-TS: rw,soft,udp,nolock,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 - This results in: 192.168.24.50:/home/wuerthne on /mnt/filme type nfs (rw,v3,rsize=8192, wsize=8192,soft,udp,nolock,addr=192.168.24.50) Unfortunately, I sometimes get a timeout error in the serial logfile of my DBox: [Tue Sep 13 19:15:49 2005]nfs: server 192.168.24.50 not responding, timed out [Tue Sep 13 19:15:49 2005][stream2file]: error in write: Input/output error [Tue Sep 13 19:15:51 2005][stream2file] pthreads exit code: 4294967293 [Tue Sep 13 19:15:56 2005][neutrino.cpp] executing /var/tuxbox/config/recording.start. [Tue Sep 13 19:15:57 2005]Record channel_id: 44d00016dcd epg: 44d00016dcda60c, apids mode 1 [Tue Sep 13 19:46:43 2005]nfs: server 192.168.24.50 not responding, timed out [Tue Sep 13 19:46:43 2005][stream2file]: error in write: Input/output error [Tue Sep 13 19:46:44 2005][stream2file] pthreads exit code: 4294967293 [Tue Sep 13 19:46:49 2005][neutrino.cpp] executing /var/tuxbox/config/recording.start. E.g. the client recognizes a timeout and restarts the recording. This results in two ore more fragments which is not desirable. For some time now, I played with different NFS options, changed switches and so on but to no avail. Sometimes I can stream 5GB without problems, sometimes the timeout occurs after a short period of time. Any ideas what I can change or how I can diagnose this problem further to avoid the timeouts?
