Capture OpenSubtitles candidates from Stremio messages

+

Dreamio now inspects Stremio app-state and worker messages for subtitle objects, so OpenSubtitlesV3 entries that are already loaded in Stremio can become native subtitle candidates before VLC opens.

+
+ Date: 2026-05-25 + Issue: dreamio-656 + Scope: native subtitle handoff +
+
+ +
+

Summary

+

The failure is not embedded subtitle rendering and is probably not a native-player delay. Stremio can show OpenSubtitlesV3 as loaded before Dreamio launches VLC, while Dreamio still forwards zero external subtitle candidates. The bridge now watches message surfaces where Stremio is likely moving already-loaded subtitle state: window.postMessage, window message events, Worker messages, MessagePort messages, and BroadcastChannel messages.

+
+ +
+

Changes Made

+ +
+ +
+

Context

+

The observed embedded-subtitle logs showed VLC successfully listing and selecting an embedded MKV subtitle track. The OpenSubtitles path is separate: Dreamio’s native player had subtitle candidates=0, meaning no external subtitle candidate reached the Swift attachment/resolution layer.

+

Stremio showing OpenSubtitlesV3 as loaded means the data likely exists in the web app before native launch. If that data moves through a worker or message channel rather than main-window fetch or DOM tracks, the old bridge would never see it.

Expected Impact for End-Users

+

Streams where Stremio has already loaded OpenSubtitlesV3 should have a better chance of handing those subtitles to native playback. The expected visible result is that the native captions menu gains external OpenSubtitles options instead of showing no external candidates.

+
+ +
+

Validation

+ +
+ +
+

Issues, Limitations, and Mitigations

+
+

This fix assumes Stremio exposes loaded subtitle objects through main-window or worker messaging. If OpenSubtitles still stays at zero candidates, the next likely gap is a storage-backed state path, such as IndexedDB or a framework store that never crosses an intercepted message boundary. The debug source labels should make that next step clearer.
