This is not totally true...
Since version 1.35.823 BSplayer is able to reproduce VobSubs subtitles without a VSfilter installed

* tray icon wasn't properly updated, fixed
* option to set separate volume for audio streams (if all are enabled) was broken, fixed
* fixed bug with skin install, if movie was playing skin was not installed
* {Y : x} tag is now properly supported in mdvd subtitles
* more compatible with real alternative
* (skin) mute button was updated only if it was defined last, fixed
* (skin) "Exit Full Screen" action wasn't working, fixed
* (skin) Status text was truncated to 9 pixel in full screen skins, fixed
* some other changes and bug fixes

I tested myself with a .sub (and .idx) file [with japanese ideograms], and it worked like a charm :)
Maybe it doesn't fully support them, but IDX subtitles should work..

@Xeeran
Have you checked the option "Enable VobSub support" in Subtitles properties (CTRL+P -> Subtitles -> VobSub)?
