bytes, yo. no kilo
I have tried to play with the advanced settings but, at least for me, the issue is the NFS/SMB implementation integrated in Kodi.
Everything works just fine when my repository is mounted directly via NFS from the underlying OS.

I have tried to play with the advanced settings but, at least for me, the issue is the NFS/SMB implementation integrated in Kodi.
Everything works just fine when my repository is mounted directly via NFS from the underlying OS.
I didn't try USB or NAND (because I want to keep Android as well) but it works fine with a Toshiba EXCERIA M302 32 GB (this is the U3 version, not U1).
I have the android box which is in my signature and so far I didn't have any issues with it. I had a NPET S905X with similar hardware but it wasn't turning off.
This is off topic, but I believed for one hour or so that I got USB3 on my box or maybe, as the say in this link Does Amlogic S905X Support USB 3.0?, maybe ports are just not wired properly. I was about to go and buy a gigabit adapter for my new box, shame!
So maximum we can get is "only" 480 Mbit.
I have returned the NPET box and boutght a Zenbox Z11 Pro, which apparently has the same characteristics but it does turn off.
Thank you for all your responses.
On my MiniMX III (s905), I got 4.2MB/s download (~33Mb/s) over a gigabit fiber and gigabit ethernet connection.
ARM processor are not very good with encryption... and there is no hardware encryption supported with the kernel (cryptodev) like Intel can do.
According to this whitepaper, :
I have to disagree that the processor can't handle properly encryption/decryption using its hardware but I would instead check that the VPN is actually using an AES based algorithm.
I can't talk about what the kernel supports or less though.
Display MoreI finally tried this and the result is truly remarkable!
My box's LAN is apparently not bad -> it runs the Sony Camp smoothly with a regular NFS share.
However the bird90 video stutters horribly via regular NFS share.
That same bird90 video runs absolutely smooth when played from the mount location!
So I stick with my initial opinion:
I did not try the 120mbit video since the LAN is only 100mbit...
kszaq is aware of this, so I believe we need just to wait and see if they can fix this. Until then, happy to use NFS from OS.
I'm not really concerned about the maximum bitrate I can play, as I don't have UHD movies to see just now, but it's possible that Kodi is using more resources to get its internal NFS/SAMBA working.
140 Mbps is less than 20 MB/sec (17.5 to be precise).
My wireless connection is at around 180 Mbit (tested with iperf / tcp).
I'm now using NFS over udp, which goes straight to a single disk (a brand new WD Red 3 TB).
Anyway, I was using a USB2 stick which performed around 18 MB/sec, so maybe at limit, so I have tested with a USB3 stick (over 40 MB/sec read on a USB3 port with my laptop) and I have to admit that USB is the right choice for UHD and s905x is not the issue here (and yes, I believe somehow the boards are all the same )
I played without issues the 200 and 250 Mbit file.

next test using USB3-Network adapter based on Realtek RTL8153
Adapter works oob with LE 7.95b
Iperf reports 180-330 Mbit
jellyfish-140-mbps-4k-uhd-hevc-10bit.mkv runnig smooth
BTW:
Adapter is not working with Stock Android
I'm surprised that your box based on s905x (like mine) is able to handle the 140 Mbit file. I have tried directly from a USB stick and it was lagging.
Somewhere I have read that these boxes are all created equal, so that's not true
mmpp: Unfortunately in my case when I power it off, the led in front of the box goes red for a second and then it goes back to blue and LE restarts from SD, therefore it stays in power on.
I have reached out to the seller to see if there's a firmware upgrade.
It's a kind of strange box what I have, I haven't seen many s905x with Wireless AC around yet.
This is an issue with u-boot, you have to ask the box manufacturer to fix this.
Thanks, what should I ask for exactly? Power off and suspend are working from the Android side.
My workaround is to restart to internal and power off from Android.
Verified the same issue with 7.0.3.012h.
I'm sorry but I'm too new to Kodi to help
A build with bumped NFS chunk size to test: 7.95.beta5b
I have just tested beta5b but unfortunately increasing the NFS chunk size didn't help
Device type: S905X
Build: 7.95.beta5b
Device: NPET S905X 2G/16G
Issue happens each time I shutdown from the menu or from SSH (poweroff or shutdown -h), the box just restarts instead.
I have attached debug logs.
Can you not use Keymap Editor to map the back button, if the rest of your remote is working already?
Kodi (7.95.2) doesn't even recognise my buttons are being pressed.
The back button works as long as the air mouse is disabled, unsure if this is by design then.
Any other button seems to work (I didn't try the numbers or the Internet explorer button nor the buttons at top Play/Pause/skip track etc).
I'm doing this at night and to watch a movie I didn't need them but tbh I didn't notice the play/pause one, it's on my list to try it
Kshi: Interesting, it seems it's another manufacturer indeed.
usb-devices: LFPA
ls-usb -v: SOQX
I got it from ebay (cheapest I could find), I guess they all look the same: 2.4GHz Wireless Fly Air Mouse Keyboard Remote For Android PC Smart TV Box MX3 M8
PS: I have tested all the important buttons and everything seems to work for me.
I'm wondering if it's normal that the "back" button doesn't work when the air mouse is enabled, but I can live with that.
Nope, it is not expected. Mine shuts down when told to do so
I don't remember anyone else mention this problem.
That's odd, but I have just recalled that I may have forgotten to copy the right dtb last time I have upgraded. Could that cause this? Anything else works.
I'm waiting for my new microsd to upgrade to beta5b.
Thank you!
