I'm not really a libbluray developer, but I'm wondering if kodi's distinction between menu and non menu really applies to blurays in general. One can have menu type stuff on screen when a blurays is playing a movie, even resizing the video. Heck, I've even seen dynamic animations done via java code overlayed on top of playing video (ex: the trivia track from the breakfast club 30th anniversary blurays, the dvd includes it as a normal vobsub, the bluray tries to be fancier).
I.e. if the movie is being played from a java/xlet context, is there a difference if it's a menu or not? I really don't know, hence asking the q.
