Re: HowTo Instructions for Removing DRM with drmdbg & FreeMe2 (from Windows Media Pla

 

Yes, and that is probably the problem... :(

Re: HowTo Instructions for Removing DRM with drmdbg & FreeMe2 (from Windows Media Pla

 

I havn't downloaded the version from the thread because sharebee.com is down for me but I am running the latest of each I believe.

I seem to be having the same problem as you

except I use BBC iPlayer and my path is
the top box shows up my path but hitting multiscan still doesnt get the key file to appear.

I'm running vista premium also.

edit: why does it put a space between 'in' and 'div02' on the forum?

Hey guys

Im having trouble playing some movies I got that are .wmv or protected.

Im following Mac2492's instructions but I cant seem to find the individualization key on my computer.

Ive unchecked the "Hide protected operating system files" in the control panel but still cant seem to find it anywhere.

Is there any other locations I should look or isnt the file being created on my computer?

Im running Windows XP.

EDIT:
Its putting in a directory path for the individualization key in the box next to Multi scan, that I dont think exists. Then when i go to play the movie I get an error from drmdbg saying "ReadProcessMemory_error". Is this cause I cant find the individualization key?

Thanks Gizza

Gizza, have you individualized your system?

If not, start your Internet Explorer and navigate to services.wmdrm.windowsmedia.com/indivSite/en/indivit.asp.

Re: HowTo Instructions for Removing DRM with drmdbg & FreeMe2 (from Windows Media Pla

 

Yes I have, did it twice to be sure and even restarted my computer.

EDIT:
Just to be clear, how long does it take to individualize? I click upgrade and it says:
Progress Status: Upgrading Security Components...

It says that for about 3 secs then goes to

Progress Status:The security components have been upgraded successfully. To play protected files, restart your digital media player. If you cannot play protected files after restarting your digital media player, restart your computer.

Is the DRM folder ment to be created in the All Users folder once its finished? Cause its still not there

Re: HowTo Instructions for Removing DRM with drmdbg & FreeMe2 (from Windows Media Pla

 

Ok, after searching the net and reading similar problems I found my DRM folder.

However its hidden, so the only way I can get to it is by using the address bar.

The folder and all files in it are hidden... No idea why, I have show Hidden files and folders selected in the folder option yet I still cant see this folder and its files...

Any ideas?

I have an issue very similar to others in this forum.. I am a Rhapsody subscriber, and would like to use my tunes on my non-Plays4sure (or whatever it's called now) Blackberry Pearl.. I'm running Windows Vista, and I have followed the instructions carefully (several times) and can not seem to generate a DRM2.key file.. Anyone out there having any luck stripping their tunes as I am trying to do??

Do I have to run DRM DBG and freeme2 for each individual file? Or for each folder

Re: HowTo Instructions for Removing DRM with drmdbg & FreeMe2 (from Windows Media Pla

 

you can run them for each individual file or use an automation tool.
