Cmon man, were all trying to get this and were all frustrated, your responce dosent help any at all. Be thankful there are people out there trying to kick the door down on DRM

I had the same problem and finally got it fixed.

I'm using Vista.

Goto C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DRM and delete all of the contents.

Goto your drmdbg folder and delete drmdbg.ini.

Play the movie your having problems with. Media Player should install a new license file. Close Media Player.

Fire up drmdbg and hit the Multiscan folder. (Make sure your video is in the same folder first)

Double click the video in the list if it doesn't start automatically and BANG....you're fixed.

This worked for me. SWEET!

This stuff seemed perfect until it simply stops processing my wmv file right in the middle...

I have a movie file of 1.2GB.
I got the drm2.key perfectly with drmdbg, I started the latest version of freeme2 (0.4)
after 435MB of freed data, I got a memory allocation error !
"memory allocation failed in handle_copy"
My HD has 2GB place left, and I have a 1GB RAM, running windows XP SP3.

Any help regarding this issue?
Thanks!
Bill

I have a problem. I use FreeMe2 0.4+drmdbg. I have Windows Media Player is 9.00.00.3250, Indivbox.key 10.0.0.3646, Windows XP SP2.

When I start drmdbg (with edited .ini), WMP starts too and goes to the Internet to download the license. But I have the license files in DRM folder already.

drmdbg doesn't extract SID code for my .wma.

Freeme writes the following:

C:\Documents and Settings\master>"C:\Documents and Settings\drm removal kit\Free
Me2.bat"\..\FreeMe2 -vs2 "C:\Documents and Settings\drm removal kit\1. Stand.wma"
Found DRMv2 header object.
Found KID (MmxU3kJAX0OK21QU++irFQ==)
Found DRMv1 header object.
Starting to look for license.
Enter SID for this file:

Please, help with my problem.

Do you allow WMP to get the license from the Internet? If WMP tries to get a license, then it is really needed to play the file. If you can't play the file, you won't be able to remove DRM.

Sometimes when you go to Media Usage Rights, the song doesn't switch, and the box in drmdbg does not fill in.

How to fix this:
if you move the song it gets stuck on out of the DRM2 folder, and into the DRM_Removal folder (next to drmdbg.exe), and hit MultiScan, then it should to work.

OK, so i was having problems. It just wasn't populating the sid know it is. Well it is about 50/50. But I put the drm2.key in the same folder as freeme but it still asks for the sid to be inputed.

Anyone have any ides


*Note* I was running some test and I noticed that if I successfullt have gotten the sid once it wont do it again. Even if I delete the original files and redo it all over again. Any ideas on this.

Thanks Ninrocket!!
Cleaning the DRM folder did the trick for me!
drmdbg finally works and it works like a charm.

I have a DRM Protected file.

I have Windows XP Professionnal with the Version V11.0.6000.7000

I downloaded drmdbg 2007/12/25 and put my Wmv file in the drgdbg file, I validate the licence

Not problem with it : v11.0.6000.7000 was displayed in the box beside "Multiscan"
I pressed : MutiScan and got :

<DRM2WMV2>
<KID>Au2CnAesm7t9AMHSimzhvA==</KID>
<SID>QomJYKJSHREjYELM2We5DhJWXGs=</SID>
<INFO></INFO>
</DRM2WMV2>

the DRM2.key also appears in the directory


I downloaded FreeMe2 and put it in the same file and it gave me this message :

Usage: FreeM2 [-vs2] protectedfile
Press <ENTER> to acknoledge error

What should I do next ?

Many thanks in advance for your help
