Re: MobiDeDRM.py - remove DRM from Mobipocket ebooks

Of course I opened the file with Mobipocket Reader.

Am I doing something completely wrong?

Any help would be highly appreciated.
You opened the file with Mobipocket reader, but that's not enough. Mobipocket Reader doesn't alter the file you originally have, it creates a new copy in its library folder, and it's THAT copy that you must use when doing the de-drm process.

MobiDeDRM is now at 0.24 (well, 0.25, but that version isn't generally available yet, and is only needed for some very old Mobipocket books with type 1 encryption.) There was a bug in 0.22 that could give that 'os' error, now fixed.
