Re: Fairuse4wm error: .wmv does not have a recognizable DRM header


Eeh, how am I going to say this.. uum..
I deserve to get the forumīs "D'oh" award (if you have one and know what I mean ).

Here is what going on: I tried removing the DRM from a file which didn't contain DRM protection at all ... but I have a good explanation for it
I bought and downloaded 2 seasons of a TV Show which contains DRM. However, of all the files, Episode 1 Of Season 1 does NOT contain DRM because it's free to download (as promo). For all other files you need to pay and therefore contain DRM.
Now you guess which file I was trying to remove DRM from... exactly from E01S01..
Why didn't I try an other file earlier ? I didn't know that E01S01 didn't contain DRM.. How I found out ? I rightclicked the file, went to the tab details and saw that under 'Security' it stated No... That made me suspicious and I started checked the other video files and they all stated 'Yes'. Then I googled and found out the reason for this as I said before.

So In short: I'm an idiot, Fairuse4wm works like a charm and this forum rocks. Thanks for helping this noob out. I really feel stupid.
