Does the player support samba / NFS server?

I have not tried either of the network protocols but I think it supports samba. With samba, you can access the HD installed on the AIOS from your PC. Here is a link to the manual http://www.pivosforums.com/AIOS/AIOS_Docs/AIOS_Manual_rev_7-26.pdf

Both NTFS and Fat 32 formatted discs or USB sticks are supported. Cheers! Marty G

yes, it is easy to map as a network drive. I have mapped it to both Windows 7 and 8, as well as Linux

I have mine connected via network and also attached to that network is my NAS and it works great. From reading the manual you can also connect the NAS straight to the media player via USB, Ethernet, or SATA and all should work. As for the BD3D ISO it should play with no issues depending on how your media is being fed to the box. If over network your network has to be strong (Wi-Fi may not cut it).

The USB on this player only supports USB flash drives such as thumb drives and jump drives. It does not support standard USB hard drives.Playable formats are FAT16 and FAT32, it can not play NTFS, HFS, andHFS+.The maximum number of playable folders is 99 and the maximum number of playable/recordable files is 2000. Do not use a USB hub between this CD player and the USB flash drive. Hope this helps.Regards,Hung

There are, but I found it to unreliable for my needs. Switch it to client access mode via the configuration file, and you will probably be much happier. The pass through mode has slow boot times, slow connects, and timeouts.

It is able to read play most any video, image or music file directly from a windows shared directly, including those NTFS drives. Is also DLNA compatible. Love mine.

Jumbo frames are supported. Do you intend to use for LAN? Mine are on webserver, so MTU is per ISP(1500). Required updated drivers to load on server boot reliably, but other than that, have worked fine for me hosting a dozen websites or so, but not high demand most of the time so nowhere near saturated. Good throughput best I can tell. Windows Server 2012 has no problem ganging via OS. Like this NIC just fine after using for datacenter use for webservers for 6 months. Should be fine for high demand LAN applications as well best I can tell.

That is not something that is a drive dependency as far as I know. That is a software restriction. I have never tried playing anything but US disks.

True that NFS support has been withdrawn via the latest firmware update. If your a Unix/Linix user you need to wait to see WD's response to all the negative press. Windows and Mac networks shouldn't be affected.

It shouldn't matter what OS you are running. As long as your OS can map a network drive it will work

None yet. I ended up getting a DS1513+ just b/c of that and use there CloudStation Sync. It works just like google drive, drop box, and Sky Drive. I believe this syncs faster out side of the network.

I haven't used it that way. I was just interested in getting a really big disk drive. But it does come with server software, which is initially disabled. In theory you can stream media to DLNA or iTunes enabled devices. I just checked the manuals and found very little clear info. I can't say for sure what formats the server supports.

Sorry Nathan, I never had a chance to try it. The player died after a few hours out of the box. I wouldn't recommend this player.

Have you tried plugging a flash drive into the player? I was unable to stream BD-Live content until I did this - the flash drive provides a storage place for the data.
