This is my line of /etc/exports for the directory I want mounted to 
kodi. It has to have the insecure option because kodi is not running 
under root.

/srv/storage/Video/Mythtv 192.168.0.0/24(rw,no_subtree_check,async,insecure)


This is the full /etc/exports:
/home 192.168.0.0/24(rw,no_subtree_check,async)
/srv/storage 192.168.0.0/24(rw,no_subtree_check,async)
/srv/storage/Video/Mythtv 192.168.0.0/24(rw,no_subtree_check,async,insecure)
/srv/music 192.168.0.0/24(rw,no_subtree_check,async)

Only the /srv/storage/Video/Mythtv is accessible to kodi

Here is the exportfs -v
sudo exportfs -v
/home 
192.168.0.0/24(rw,async,wdelay,root_squash,no_subtree_check,sec=sys,rw,root_squash,no_all_squash)
/srv/storage 
192.168.0.0/24(rw,async,wdelay,root_squash,no_subtree_check,sec=sys,rw,root_squash,no_all_squash)
/srv/storage/Video/Mythtv
192.168.0.0/24(rw,async,wdelay,insecure,root_squash,no_subtree_check,sec=sys,rw,root_squash,no_all_squash)
/srv/music 
192.168.0.0/24(rw,async,wdelay,root_squash,no_subtree_check,sec=sys,rw,root_squash,no_all_squash)
