There was a DVD Error in playback details sage.playbackexception: error (-9x0x80040277): this operation is currently not allowed for this dvd.

This doesn't belong in this thread. It sounds like this would happen to you in any STV not just Cayars. Yesterday you posted that your default decoder was the Intervideo NonCSS and this will not work for regular encrypted DVD playback. Change the Video and Audio Decoder to an actual DVD decoder in the Detailed Setup - DVD section.

On the "nothing happens" problem, what are your decoder settings in the DVD section of Detailed Setup?

On the error:
Yeah, I wish Jeff would make that error more friendly, basically it's part of the way DVDs work (some times you aren't allowed to skip/ffw/etc), but that error makes it sound worse than it is.

It is also a good idea to submit a support request:

Try using Overlay for the DVD Video Renderer and if that doesn't work also try VMR9 instead of Default.
