DVDAfterEdit, and now BluStreak

I use DVD Studio Pro, and I'm trying to evaluate if buying DVDafterEDIT will give me solutions for “buttons on video” in a multi-angle stream. I want to do one button on video that will cycle through the available angle (just like a the remote control button allows). Can someone tell me if DAE can help with this, AND if the article mentioned below in the last sentence has been posted or is available...

From page 38 of the DAE manual.pdf:
Ian Shepherd, one of our top ace beta testers, has successfully used forced activated “buttons on video” in a multi-angle stream, to seamlessly switch angles, based on certain variable/GPRM values being present.

A button command in the VOBs nav packs, has the unique property of being able to check a variable/GPRM/SPRM value, and if the condition isn’t met, the angle can continue to play on seamlessly; and if the condition is met, the angle will switch to another angle seamlessly (or jump to another location non seamlessly, depending on the command, in keeping with the DVD spec’s “no seamless transition” rule)!

The reason this works, is because button commands are located in the VOB itself, in the nav packs, so the command is “local”; the DVD player’s laser doesn’t have to seek back to find the command in the PGC back in the VTS’s IFO file, as it’s right there in the VOB where the laser is reading.

An article on this will be appearing on the TFDVDEdit support site, soon."
