I got my info from TS concerning drmdbg and
unDRM.info concerning FreeMe2. As the instructions on those pages are 'old' I had to be creative.
My system as I used it
XP Home fresh install + SP3 + updates (not the most latest)
WMP11 (from windows update site) without any updates
[this will not work with WMP9]
What did I use it on
DRM protected wmv from a local (Belgium) TV network
Code:
http://www.iwatch.be/2007/player.php?item_id=4388
Instructions
(Get an unzipper; I use
Winrar)
Individualize your computer @
services.wmdrm.windowsmedia.com/indivSite/en/indivit.asp.
Get FreeMe2; I got it from
sourceforge.
Unzip folder 'FreeMe2' into 'Program Files' or whatever.
Get drmdbg; I got it from
Download the latest version of drmdbg.exe; file is 'drmdbg_2009_03_03.7z' (suppose filename depends on latest update).
Unzip the exe and txt (which I can't read) into the 'FreeMe2' folder (or where-ever you want but this is easy). So I got in the 'FreeMe2' folder a new folder 'drmdbg_2009_03_03' with in it the exe and txt file.
[There is no need for a 'DRM Removal Kit' folder as mentioned in TS]
Put your DRM-protected file into the 'drmdbg_2009_03_03' folder.
Play your DRM-protected file with WMP (validate the license). As my WMP11 was newly installed, some DRM related (I suppose) content was installed when first playing the file.
Stop playing the file. Close WMP.
Run drmdbg.exe. Drmdbg will run and WMP will open (A 'DRM2' folder with 'DRM2.key' should be created).
[No need to click 'Multi Scan' as mentioned in TS]
Hit 'Play' in WMP, the keys will be displayed in the bottom box of drmdbg (beside 'Clear'). Close drmdbg, WMP will close also.
Move 'DRM2.key' from the 'DRM2' folder to the 'FreeMe2' folder, rename it to 'drm2.key' (yes from upper to lower case).
Move the DRM-protected file also to the 'FreeMe2' folder.
Drag the DRM-protected file onto 'FreeMe2.exe'.
[Running the exe by clicking it won't work, using the command line won't work]
A DOS window 'FreeMe2.exe' will open processing your file. A file 'Freed-your_file_name' will be created, freed from DRM.
Enjoy the DRM-free content!
