As long as they are FTA and if for some reason the OE-A moves forward with the need of new drivers. Then only BH will still work on Vu+ decoders.
I predicted this a few mounts ago. That the move to what ever python version will be the standard in the future. Would kill the BH image.

Now I know nothing about what Vu+ plans are, But since they along with DreamProperty has chosen to not jump on the py3 train yet.
There is a reason. The 2 biggest on the sat marked can't be just giving up. I am pretty sure there will come something new and maybe even better.
Or they have just give up the Linux/Enigma2 approach and will move to Android instead.

There are signs since Vu+ already have a Google Certify device on the marked.

But for those who love the BH image the move to OBH is recommended. You will feel home in that image.
But since all py3 images is still in what I call developer mode. I see no hurry for the regular Sat TV user to rush over.
All the most common thirdparty plugin developers support both py2.7 and py3

Instead take advatage of the OMB plugin. Install OBH. Get to know the image and when you are ready do the move
Read all the nice guides written about the use of OBH.

And as a final reflection from me. This is the only Team working on 2 images so to move all the effort into one image looks very logic

In my hdd the movies are in mp4 format being that the name of the movie and the srt are identical... now this has a different format (I think it is ts) and more than a designation for the same movie...can be this is the problem.

Here is what happens is that when you select a movie, existing the SRT, this is immediately assumed (embedded):

The RCU key to access subtitles is the left key of the AV key.

When I download a TV video, it is always in .ts format.
When I copy a video from my PC to the VU+, I always do it in .MP4 format
In both cases - using blackhole image and not OBH - the subtitles worked normally.

So I don't think it has anything to do with .ts or .mp4 format.

That's weird, but here's an easy way to show subtitles for you:
Menu - Setup - User Interface - Button setup - (Here select an unused button to assign the subtitle function) - Infobar - Show subtitle selection
Save with green button.

Edit: You're right, left/right arrows don't work as expected. Since I'm on openATV, I had to switch back to OpenBH to check it, that should be fixed.

I tried your suggestion, but to my surprise I could not associate a key to the Show subtitle selection. I tried 4 times! I think something is wrong in my OBH 4.4 install. I am going to install OBH 5 today to see if that clears things up.

Thanks for all your help.

I have just move to OBH 5. Installation was simple and nearly all addons, settings and WiFi settings etc were restored from my OBH 4.4 backup.
My subtitle problem has also been fixed! Yellow button and yellow button again to select the subtitles. On my OBH 4.4 install the second yellow button showed "enable bluetooth audio".

I am very happy with the OBH 5 image!
Thanks for all the support

In OBH 4.4 the situation is the same... if we have the SRT, then it is assumed without needing anything else.

Maybe your 4.4 was corrupted...

In OBH subtitles are activated simply by long press yellow or, in RC which have the subtitle key, by it of course, or, finally, pressing AUDIO twice.
