The following snip is from one of my xml files and shows one technique
for transitions between menu screens. This particular sample is from
the root menu of a titleset.
<---------------------- Start snip -------------------------------->
	  button=1024;
	  if (g1 == 2)  button=2048;
	  <!--if (g1 == 3)  button=3072; -->
	  if (g2 == 2)  jump menu 2;
	  if (g2 == 3)  jump menu 3;
	  <!--if (g2 == 4)  jump menu 4; -->
	  g1 = 1;
	  if (g2 == 1) {
	      g2 = 0;
	      if (g0 == 99) jump cell 2;
	      if (g0 == 2) jump cell 3;
	      if (g0 == 3) jump cell 4;
	      <!--if (g0 == 4) jump cell 5;-->
	  }
	  g0 = 1;
	</pre>
	<vob file="Menus/Menu_1_Power.mpg"  pause="inf" />
	<vob file="Menus/T_1_1P.mpg" >
	  <cell start="00:00:00">
	    g0=1; jump cell 1;
	  </cell>
	</vob>
	<vob file="Menus/T_2P_1P.mpg" >
	  <cell start="00:00:00">
	    g0=1; jump cell 1;
	  </cell>
	</vob>
	<vob file="Menus/T_3P_1P.mpg" >
	  <cell start="00:00:00">
	    g0=1; jump cell 1;
	  </cell>
	</vob>
