OpenBH 4.3.011
Kodi 18.3

As most of you know we recently released a couple of beta OBH 4.3 images with Kodi 18 included. We have now moved out of Beta with these images and Kodi 18 is now available to install in OBH 4.3.011 onwards from the BH SpeedUp panel.


OBH 4.3 is the first and currently only image available with Kodi 18.

If you have OBH 4.3.009 or later installed then you can simply online update and install Kodi 18.

If you are using OBH 4.3.008 or older, then you will need to reflash your box first with 4.3.011 as some files may not update correctly.

Whats New:
  • Working with Addons that support Netflix, Amazon Prime and other streaming services with your regular subscription.
  • There is no hardware acceleration at the moment so the player is not perfect but it is working.


*** PLEASE NOTE THAT KODI 18.3 IS WORKING ON VU+ 4K ARM STB'S ONLY, WE TRIED TO ADD SUPPORT FOR MIPS BOXES, WHICH IS WHY THERE HAS BEEN A DELAY IN MOVING FROM BETA TO FULL RELEASE. HOWEVER MIPS SUPPORT IS JUST NOT POSSIBLE FOR THE MOMENT. ***



You can use Kodi 18 addons for Netflix, Amazon and so on.

The two repositories that we have tested and know these addons are working:
Castagna.it for Netflix and Sandmann79 for Amazon (if you can not get Amazon to work then use the Amazon VOD addon instead).

You have to enable external sources, install as zip file and then install from the repository or search for these addons on google for detailed instructions.

I had reflashed some weeks ago my Solo4K with the release 4.3.009. Some days ago there was the online update to .010 and then, a couple of days ago, there was a new, consistent update and I thought it would be the .011. Instead it is still showed .010.
So, after the announcement of .011 I expected to have this online update (as I started from the .009, as written above). But nothing.
Perhaps the major update of two day ago was the actual 011 but, for some reason, it is showed as 010?
Or it is that the 011 for Solo4K has not been released as an online update, yet?
Is there a way (apart from the info menu, of course, that shows 4.1.010) to check the actual version?

so here is my firs test results… the picture is realy sharper as vti image. system runs smooth and fast, no errors on install. BUT !! error or problems with hbbtv, when i am using Bluetooth on hbbtv crash because it can't detect red button. when i switch of Bluetooth there is no problem by second red button push for hbbtv. Kodi - hmmm i don't run better as older Kodis on E2 boxes, so there is no wow. But, why ever Kodi start but run not away, no reaction of remote i have to switch off backside. Also bad feed, there are much plugins not for ultimo4k or not running. there is alot of work in this image… to get run a ultimo4k in best performance. Also kill switch will not supportet etc... nice gimmic to have Netflix amazon or what ever in 720P.. hahaa for real unusefull.

Very good: so you are one of those very technicians user who are able to judge an operative system in a matter of hours...
Instead, I'm a stupid IT guy who, after 35 year of IT experience know that an O.S. is like a Universe, and it must be judged and discovered day by day.
