Any interest in this?

Yes, absolutely, thank you for that PR.
Maybe some more information would be helpful ( I know, I can do this on my own, but I didn't yet...).

• Does the current method of retrieving subtitles not work anymore?
• Are all the subtitles served via https now?
• Maybe you can provide an example?

I haven't tested the insecure method, sorry.

Using curl, the insecure token endpoint http://tp.srgssr.ch/ redirects
to HTTPS with 302 Moved Temporarily.

• Are all the subtitles served via https now?

AFAIK all content has been served via HTTPS for several years now.

The first program we tuned on worked without issues with these
modifications. It also worked for another program. And just now
with another one. It seems fair to assume that if the endpoints work
for a few programs, it shall work for all.

• Maybe you can provide an example?

'10 vor 10 vom 02.04.2024'.

The subtitle server identifies itself as Amazon S3 behind Cloudfront. It doesn't redirect HTTP to HTTPS, and both do work.

This is the subtitle URL for the program mentioned above:
