For years I had a well working setup where my movie files and their related metadata are hosted on an HDD connected to a Raspberry Linux server running a Debian derivative (Raspbian) and my Vero player devices (also Debian based) used a share from it to play Movies and TV Series.
I also use a Mac app (tinyMediaManager) to enrich my movies and series video files and therefore I also need to mount my remote video files directory in a decent R/W mode from the Raspbian machine to my Sonoma Mac.
Problems cropped up which I don’t even recall and I switched from Samba to AFS then back to (perhaps different levels and settings) of Samba etc. As of today the situation is a mess. I see some movies, I do not reach others, things are super slow etc etc.
Can any kind soul please let me understand what Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) share to define (NFS, AFS,Samba ? Versions? Options?) and how so it will be well seen by both the Vero 4K player (a fast read mode would suffice) and also from my Mac (where I need a R/W access to write the metadata with TinyMediaManager even if slower).
Thanks for the patience.
