Important Notice:
If you like OpenBh and you want to see it continue, please don’t forget to donate towards keeping the servers online.
Keeping OpenBh and this Forum online is getting more and more expensive. It costs in the region of €2400+ per year to keep OpenBh and this Forum online. OpenBh has always been provided to completely free of charge by a number of hard working OpenBh Team members in their spare time.
OpenBh 5.4 is based on the OE-Alliance 5.4 core.
So what is different in OpenBh 5.4 then?
The main change from version 5.3 to version 5.4 has been to upgrade from oe-alliance-core branch 5.3 to 5.4. The OE (Open Embedded) core on which the image is built has also undergone major changes, updates and fixes, and uses the latest bitbake version. Version 5.4 uses Python version 3.12.2.
Whats New:
-
OE-A 5.4
-
Python 3.12.2
-
Gstreamer updated to version 1.22.10
-
Vu+ Multiboot feature added for all 4K Vu+ models and now updated to make the install process automated.
-
If your favourite plugins no longer work, you will need to contact the plugin authors to ask them to update their plugins for Python3.12.2
Vu+ Multiboot wouldn’t have been possible without the hundreds of hours that dpeddi has spent over several years (yes it’s been an on going project for him in his spare time for many years) to bring this real multiboot option for all Vu+ 4K boxes.
It is something we requested from Vu+ around 8/9 years ago and they told us it was not possible to add it, well finally we can prove them wrong.
You will find more information on how to setup and use Vu+ Multiboot here:
Apart from the above you should not notice many differences between previous OpenBh 5.3 and OpenBh 5.4 images.
*** NOTE ***
If you use CrossEPG, then you will need to delete the crossepg folder in /media/usb or /media/hdd before you can use it in OpenBh 5.4 onwards, this is due to changes made, to keep it compatible with Python 3.12.2
