Hey Jeremy, Thanks for this post. These settings seem to have fixed my Samba configuration. I had configured with AIO previously, but apparently my tunings weren't spot on. I'd get buffering over 100Mbit with 1080p video, but 720p video would work just fine. Looks like this is what I needed to be able to ditch using DLNA for streaming to my Popbox! -- Joshua Boyd JBipNet E-mail: boy...@jbip.net http://www.jbip.net _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
