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 installed Castagna.it and Netflix. Logging into Netflix = ok
playing a movie Netflix asks to install Widevine CDM.
Unfortunately, this installation fails.
What still needs to be done to get Netflix up and running please ?
