AetherEngine 3.9.0
Dual subtitles (independent secondary subtitle track)
A second, fully independent subtitle channel now runs alongside the primary one, so a host can display two subtitle lines at once (for example the original language plus a translation, for bilingual playback and language learning).
Added
selectSecondarySubtitleTrack(index:),selectSecondarySidecarSubtitle(url:httpHeaders:),clearSecondarySubtitle(), plus publishedsecondarySubtitleCues,isSecondarySubtitleActive,isLoadingSecondarySubtitles.- A
SubtitleChannelenum threads through the reader, apply, and cancel paths; the primary path stays behavior-identical. Each channel owns its own side demuxer, seek re-arm, teardown, and audio-track-reload resume. - The secondary channel is text-only (bitmap codecs are rejected) and always decodes to plain text: it never preserves ASS markup, so it stays clean even when the primary is a styled ASS track.
aetherctl dualsubs <file> --primary <i> --secondary <j>validates the two channels emitting cues independently.
