Buttons over 16:9 Video Tracks
To place a button over a video track, you add a menu overlay to a subtitle stream in the
track. These overlays are not processed in the same way as the video, so you must create
a separate overlay for each display mode (16:9, 4:3 letterbox, and 4:3 pan-scan). You then
need to create a script that selects the correct subtitle stream to display based on the
DVD player’s settings.
