Boot time with Kodi and NAS

  • I have connected my Synology NAS for movies, series and music via NFS to the newest RPI4 Libreelec image. When booting Libreelec with

    NAS turned on, the connection is established and all icons are immediately available.

    But when the NAS is off, it takes up to 3 minutes for the icons to appear, I think it tries to connect the NFS before. I also tried to connect with SMB, but there is the same result.

    Is there any option that allows faster operation even if the NAS is off?

    Best regards

  • I have similar setup.

    Nas is a rockpi4 Penta-Sata-Tower with 4 SSD in one room and raspberry pi4 in another room. I turn on the Nas, go to the other room and turn on beamer, amp and raspi (in that order) ...

    I don't have to wait for kodi to show the icons. Everything is available as expected (with more than 10Tb of data)
