I'm glad you got it working but I've used udp nfs to play back
recordings on my xbox machines for ages without an issue.  Also, all
my mythvideo stuff works AOK also. The xbox can be used to rip a VOB
from a DVD writing it to an NFS mounted filesystem and play back
the same VOB with xine over NFS at the same time.

The options on the xboxes for the nfs mount are:
rsize=8192,wsize=8192,nfsvers=3

In /etc/exports on the server:
/var/video xbox2(rw,async,no_root_squash)

no_root_squash isn't really a requirement, depending...
