Thank you for your reply. After I flashed my DUO2 to the BH 3.0.8, when I watch my recorded files,( I believe I used the EXteplayer3), I cannot found my recorded files which are in sub-directories. The Exteplayer seems only find the recorded files in the root directory of my media files. Is this the right way to play my recorded files ? Or I should use different plugin to play my recorded files.

BH has never been able to (easily) browse subfolders, but this has nothing to do with extplayer3: it's a limit of BH.
It is,also, one of the reasons I prefer OBH, which is able to browse folders as every operative systems allow to users.
Under BH, if you don't want to use EMC (Enhanced Movie Center) you have to do a lot of actions to browse: you need to enter your recording list by the specific button; then, you have to press it again to have the chance of getting to your saved bookmarks or browse folders pressing a third key: MENU. Now, finally, you can get to the "browsing" of folders and devices and you can also add some folder to your bookmark (follow what the GUI tells you).
I find the whole thing quite absurd, frankly.
By the way, EMC partially helps you, although you need to press menu to browse you devices. But, if you need to browse your folders within the default devices for recordings, EMC is quite effective.
It has also the capability of selecting many files (video or music) by the same REC LIST k_ey, and then you'll be able to play them sequentially.
But OBH is a completely different world... as I tried to explain here:

You're trying to use a movie player
you can not use Movie Player to browse folders.
You can change the main movie folder in Movie Player .If you are in MovePlayer list >>PVR button>>Select movie path
you can add different folders bookmarks
And again you can play from different folders using PVR button and choose bookmarks.
But easy
You can use Media Player to play and browse folders.
If yo like to use EXteplayer3 then you must first change E2 playbeck system from orginal to serviceapp and extplayer3 in
System>>ServiceApp
I think this will work all this way
but I did not test it on DUO2.

To get back to use Movie Player.
Movie Player can also be easily configured
by adding different folders to bookmarks
In that case, changing from one folder to another is very easy and fast with PVR button from move player list >> PVR
choose a folder/bookmark with your movies>>OK button
I have add different folders to bookmarks for test

Thank you very much for your help. I used to use the Enhanced Move Centre to play my recorded files, but this time I see a new player (If I understood correctly) Extplayer, I thought it should be better than the EMC. I just not sure whether I use the new player correctly. Thank you again for your kind help.

You can use Enhanced Move Centre
folder procedure is similar
only used buttons are different.All all in the video list panel.
Here first with the Menu button >> Open E2 Bookmark path
Menu >> Switch to file list and add a new Folder / Disk with your video files and Bookmark >> green button save
You can have multiple folders Bookmarks with video and music files.
If you like to change main folder with your files
Use Menu button and Open EMC bookmark path / Folder you like to use.

As far as I see, Extplayer is not a player, with a GUI, I mean. It's a feature to play more files. I don't have, actually, any Extplayer installed as a plugin: it is used by the embedded player or by EMC, in case you install it.
Am I right, coders?

No is not GUI player ,GUI is the same but the way media files are decoded,playback system.
GUI is the same the playback system depends on the configuration of ServiceApp and links in the case of Iptv and stream,
there is information on the forum.

Yes, by GUI I meant that Extplayer3 has no graphic interface, as a normal player, but it is used by every players in the system. It works "under cover", in a sense
