Here's what I'm trying to do (I'm not even sure if I can but I'm sure as hell gonna try)...

(Using DVDMaestro...)
I have my movie with two audio streams, one stereo and one 5.1. I have an audio setup menu that lets you pre-select which stream you want and then takes you back to the main menu.
Here's where I can't figure out what to do...
I have two Dolby trailers, one Dolby Surround (for the stereo track) and one Dolby Digital (for the surround track). Each trailer's end action is to play the movie with the correct audio stream.
How do I get the Play button on the main menu to play the correct trailer based on what the user selected in the audio setup menu?

I know the easy way would be to have the trailers play immediately after the user selects which audio stream he wants instead of going back to the main menu but I'm trying to learn how to do more complicated navigation and interaction. (Jesus that was a long sentence :D ).

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Nevermind I got it, :) .

For those of you interested I just set different values into GPRM for each audio track, then had the play button on the main menu check to see which value was in memory. If it was value 1 then it palyed the stereo trailer followed by the movie with the stereo track, if it was value two it played the surround trailer followed by the movie with the surround track.

I learn something new every day...
