NFS Defaults to UDP

Description

The NFS client in Boxee defaults to mounting shares using UDP. This can result in dropped packets and video stuttering, which is what I'm experiencing. If Boxee would default to TCP, or allow this as part of its configuration (a simple proto=tcp or proto=udp is all that's required on the CLI), the NFS support would be significantly more reliable.

I agree. TCP is much more reliable of course and sacrificing a little bit of speed is worth it.
