Can we please get away from this way of reading subtitles? Every other
type of media (audio, video) are capable of being streamed, but not
subtitles, precisely because all of them do all parsing in the
read_header() call. We have a perfectly good generic index and seeking
functionality. My recent experiment with srt shows it's possible to
read packets in read_packet() like every other demuxer..
