If you want to use the track controls, you can make your player call cDevice::PrimaryDevice()->ClrAvailableTracks() and cDevice::PrimaryDevice()->SetAvailableTrack() accordingly. Not so easy... If player feeds mpeg-ts stream to the device, track maps are rewritten by cPatPmtParser. Also selected track is reset. This is problematic with BluRay player: languages are not given in PMT but metadata. There can be extra tracks in PMT when the same mpeg-ts clip is used in multiple titles. One title can use original audio tracks while another uses commentary tracks etc. Also user-selected language (from BluRay menus) is overridden by VDR when first PMT is parsed. Well, first of all, VDR is not a BlueRay player ;-) It is meant for recording and replaying DVB broadcasts. However, you can, of course, modify the PMT packets in a way that works for your application. VDR provides both cPatPmtParser and cPatPmtGenerator classes that might help with this.

If you want to use the track controls, you can make your player call cDevice::PrimaryDevice()->ClrAvailableTracks() and cDevice::PrimaryDevice()->SetAvailableTrack() accordingly. As for kInfo, you can implement your player control's GetInfo() function to make it return a proper menu.
