Are there any real world benefits of using NFS over SMB for MrMC on a hard wired FireTV (ver 2)? Im currently using SMB.

NAS? NFS you mean?

I use SMB, others use NFS... if you dont have any issues using SMB then there is no reason to change...

I did see in another thread that tests showed that NFS is marginally faster, it will load video faster but I doubt that would be noticeably faster since we are really good on video start... for the most part :)
