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


Hello! I've been using drmdbg in conjunction with freeme2, and after having some initial difficulty I've gotten it to work... somewhat.

I'm at 11.0.6000.7000 on drmdbg, running on Vista. I have to use the "media usage rights" trick in WMP to get a SID code to appear (right-click on file name, then hit properties and the media usage rights tabs after clicking multiscan in drmdbg).

HOWEVER, a .key file is never created. I have both programs in the same folder and have the key directory set to there and I have disabled the key directory option.

Even though it doesn't make a key, I don't have to copy/paste the SID because freeme2 seems to automatically decode the music and create a freed file after it's been run through drmdbg. (I've searched my computer, and there are no .key files anywhere!)

Sounds great, right? BUT, BUT, the freed file is completely messed up. Its properties still report it at the right length, size, etc., but the "song" only lasts for 5 seconds at the most, and it's completely silent! I just get a garbled noise right before it goes out.

Anyone have any clue what could be causing this? Any help is appreciated!
