@scamNscoot scamNscoot released this 03 Jul 02:03

You can now plug in a Stremio subtitles addon (SubSource, OpenSubtitles, or anything implementing the subtitles resource). Add one line to your switch/streamfin-addon.txt:

subtitles=https://your-subtitles-addon.example.com/...

When playback starts, StreamFin fetches subtitles for that exact title/episode and attaches them to the player - pick one under + -> Subtitle, one entry per language, alongside any subtitle tracks embedded in the file. Embedded subtitles keep working with no configuration, and nothing is auto-selected.

Updated build (2026-07-03): the attached StreamFin.nro also includes two fixes:

  • Big files no longer buffer forever mid-stream - the HTTP reader now reconnects automatically when the CDN drops or throttles a long-running connection (this hit files over ~1 GB hardest), and dead reads time out after 15s instead of stalling.
  • Episode lists for newly-aired shows fall back to the series backdrop when an episode still doesn't exist yet, instead of showing a grey placeholder.

Install: copy StreamFin.nro to /switch/ on your SD card.
