Flip4 mac MVW is unable to play DRM protected content

Hi,
I downloaded -purchased- a video music tuition(WMV) from a website and I cannot read it with neither VLC nor Quicktime. any suggestion please.
Thanks

It means that the show's creators put technical restrictions on when the file or stream can be played. No Mac software is capable of handling such Windows Media content.

Air 3.6 will not play DRM protected content.

This is getting silly.
AIR 3.5 will play DRM protected content, but won't guarantee playing NetStream to the end, AIR 3.6 fixes that... BUT... won't play DRM protected content.

This one is getting close to being a showstopper for us.

Thank you for adding the bug report. I'm pinging the video/drm team on this issue and we'll update the bug report asap.
Thanks,

Hal-flash to watch DRM-protected content in firefox

Hi guys,
I'm facing a weird problem that I cannot find solution for.
I have followed wiki and installed hal-flash + udisks2 on my desktop PC since I wanted to watch some DRM-protected content on internet (person of interest to be precise). All worked great.
But then my wife, who also is running Arch on her laptop (samsung 900x series) wanted to watch the same content on it.
So I quickly ssh-ed to her laptop, installed exactly the same hal-flash and udisks2 + I also removed all the firefox cache - but no success, flash video that is playing nicely on my PC does not play on her laptop.
I checked all relevant software version (that is firefox, hal-flash, udisks2) - the same on both PC and laptop. To my simple understanding it should work on both computers...
I'm feeling a bit dumb because I told my wife using linux will be as easy as using windws and now it seems I cannot figure out something that seems to be a 'simple thing' from her point of view (obviously after reading wiki I know it's a bit more complex and in the same time interesting issue)...
So I humbly ask somebody to direct me what may be wrong here?

Ok, so I installed pipelight and also I enabled flash - however flash is not appearing on the list of plugins. So I removed my flashplugin (the standard one I installed when setting up firefox) - it seems firefox does not recognise that there is a plugin installed... Trilby, should flash appear on about:plugins page?
--edit--
It seems browser should be closed when installing wine-silverlight. I uninstalled pipelight, closed the browser and installed again - now plugin appears however it's showing error:

Creating DRM-Protected Content for Playback in Quicktime

I would like to create some protected audio content, not for sale, but so that only authorized persons can listen to it. Since I have had problems with Windows Media DRM, I am wondering whether a private person can create DRM-protected content that Quicktime can play back. I don't know how authorizations would work and I am not intending to stream the content, just to make it available for download.
Does anyone know about this? Any ideas? A series of Google searches on Apple's website produced nothing relevant.

Sorry, but there is no scheme for creating copy protection in a QuickTime file, at least none that are practical. There was Media Keys, but that was only supported by the SorensonVideo 3 codec. Apple has not made the DRM they use for the iTunes Store available to other users.
The only way I can think of to copy-protect a QuickTime file for a web site would be to either put the download on a password-protected web page or wrap the QuickTime file in a password-protected archive of some format (Stuffit can password-protect an archive and there are probably other solutions as well).

Thanks Erik,
If nothing else, this huge list of updates and fixes, shows clearly that the Logic Dev team is working hard on fixing and improving LPX to a major degree.... and from the list of fixes done.. show they do read the bug reports submitted!
As an aside....
I recall how all the 'naysayers' prior to LPX (and in some cases, since...) were proclaiming how Logic was dead, the team was being disbanded, we won't see any further development, the Dev team doesn't listen or care... and so on....... I wonder where those people are now?

How to play previously DRM protected content in 3rd party iOS apps?

I have a collection of tracks which I purchased from iTunes around 2008, which have the iTunes DRM protection. I would like to play these tracks through 3rd party iOS applications. Specifically, the applications "NuVo Player", "Sonos", and "Ambify", although this seems to apply to all 3rd party music apps.
To remove the DRM from the files, I signed up for iTunes match. I enabled the service in iTunes, and let it scan my library. Once it was complete, I deleted the tracks which have DRM, and used the iTunes match service to re-download them. I used the Finder to inspect the new files, and verified that they are no longer protected. They are .m4a format, and are capable of being played by 3rd party applications in OS X.
I then removed the protected files from my phone, and manually re-synced the new files to my phone. Even after doing this, they are unplayable by 3rd party iOS apps. Unsurprisingly, syncing this .m4a file to a new device (which never had the protected version) allows it to play.
It seems that metadata of some kind may be retained on the iOS device. I suspect a full device restore would fix the problem, but I'm looking for a less intrusive solution.

I found that restoring defaults on the device, followed by a restore from backup, allows this track to play in 3rd party apps.

Cant play DRM encrypted content with flash player 11.3

Hi, Im working as a developer on a video on demand service!
I just updated to flash player 11.3 and now i can't play any DRM encrypted content anymore on windows.
I use SSL to connect to the DRM server, please help!

I use Windows Vista.
Flash Player v 11,3,300,257
Does not work on Chrome 19, FireFox 13 or IE.
I tried to play the video http://drmtest2.adobe.com/AccessPlayer/player.html and i get a 3329 DRM error

Problem playing DRM-protected music on MuVu TX

All of my protected music (purchased through either walmart or msn music) gets skipped over when read by the player. however, when it is connected via the usb, they will play just fine (through wmp0) it was my understanding that the TX FM and both of these stores are PFS compatible? Any insight on why these won't play for me?
Also, I'm getting frustrated to the point that i'm consideriing burning all of these DRM tracks to cd and then ripping them back to my hard dri've. Since i bought them fair and square, it's cool to do this right?:smileyindifferent:
Unless anybody can tell me how to get them to play...
and oh yeah, they were originally transferred through mediasource, not dragged and dropped in explorer, so that's not the issue
Thanks for any assistance!

Janus DRM (AKA PlayForSure it seems) is used at stores like Yahoo Music Unlimited and Napster To Go, that is those stores offering subscription agreements where the file's license expires after so many days.
That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard of!!! How can that possibly be user friendly?!
SSR wrote:
This is the problem with DRM, and doesn't lend to making it easy for customers to understand and use.
That's an understatement!!!
Thanks for all your help, both of you. I think I'll go back to my original plan of burning and then ripping back to HD. And definitely no more downloading for me...too much hassle!

Home Sharing issues since iTunes 11.0.5, unable to play movie/tv content it just hangs on the spinning sprocket

Every since my upgrade to iTunes 11.0.5, I have had problems with my AppleTV homesharing with iTunes. The media, (Movies, TV Shows, etc) hangs on that spinning sprocket/gear wheel or show's the first frame of the movie and never loads or plays. I have to continually restart the AppleTV or iTunes, sometimes even restarting my iMac or the Network Router.
Does anyone have a work around or solution to this issues, it is making me mental having to restart after each screening.
Thanks....

Hey Phyxius38,
Great troubleshooting so far! While you may have attempted some of these steps already, I wished to provide you with this article just in case:

Cant play DRM encrypted content with Win 7 - 64 bits and IE9 - 64 bits

Hi,
I have a problem that I need to resolve...
Everything runs fine with Firefox, Chrome, IE7, IE8, Safari on Windows XP 32 bits as well as 64 bits, except on Windows 7 64 bits with IE9 64 bits and Flash 11.3. 64 bits. Furthermore, it's work with Windows 7 32 bits with IE9 32 bits and flash 11.3 32 bits.
After the flash client executes a "loadVoucher(drmContentData)" for the licences server, I receive as a response the error code 3303 ?
According to the reference of the runtime error, it's says that the content is expired.
3303
Content expired.
Reacquire voucher from the server.
Have you met this problem already, if yes, how did you solve it?
Thanks in advance

When will the RAZR MAXX be able to play DRM content?

I can't sync DRM protected content to my DROID RAZR MAXX, although I could to my DROID 2. While searching this forum I found the following post:
Transfer Pictures / Videos - DROID RAZR / RAZR MAXX by MOTOROLA
Only DRM free / unprotected video can be transferred via this method. DRM protected content will not play on this device
Why? Is this a permanent condition?

From the Microsoft compatability website I find:

all listed as "certified as PlaysForSure devices by Microsoft"
and I can attest that I was able to sync a digital copy of "STAR TREK" from Paramount, from the Blue-Ray with digital download I purchased and loaded on my PC, onto my DROID 2 without any problems.
The Microsoft compatability site lists 21 Android devices from multiple manufacturers that CAN play DRM protected content.
Why is the DROID RAZR MAXX not in that list?
Ah, so you're talking video not audio. Afraid I don't know about that. I assume you've tried looking through the Market for a compatible player app - just in case Microsoft's list is not up to date? Otherwise you might try posting on Motorola's Droid Razr forum if know one knows here.

Unable to play songs on 8330

Just got my 8330 from Verizon today. A very nice phone. But I am having one problem: Songs do not play in the media player. The player cycles through the play list, pausing on each song for a fraction of a second before going on to the next one.
I have used both the Media Manager (with and without conversion) as well as copying .wma files directly to the SD card.
HELP!!!!

You mention .wma files, are they DRM protected? Like purchased from a service? or converted from your own CDs etc?
I believe that the BB will not play DRM protected files.

Wont play protected content

My A-TV won't play any protected content. Anyone else having this problem?

I can stream perfectly well as long as it is stuff that I loaded off a CD or other MP3 file. Anything purchased from Apple won't work. Even when I try to sync instead of stream, it won't load any of the drm protected songs onto A-TV. Everything else works though and since the unit is clearly communicating with the network (because the other songs play etc.) and is operatiing on other songs, there must be some sort of protection communication problem and that's why I'm so concerned about the response from customer service.

Cannot play Adobe Access Protected Content in Chrome (version 30 and higher); Error 3321/3322?

Symptom:
An end-user cannot play Adobe Access protected content. The client application returns a persistent 3321 (Individualization Error) or 3322 (Device Binding Failure) error code.
Root Cause in Chrome Browser:
Adobe Access DRM must create a unique machine identifier (I.e. "token") to identify the the device. This token is provided to the Adobe Access license server during a license request to view DRM protected content. If Chrome Browser disables the ability for Adobe Access DRM to create a unique machine identifier, playback of Protected Content will fail with a 3321 or 3322 error code. By default, this setting is enabled and available to toggle in Chrome Browser version 30 and higher. Unchecking this option will prevent Adobe Access DRM from properly functioning. A 3321 or 3322 error that persists after a call to resetDRMVouchers is an indicator that this setting may need to be changed.
Resolution:
In your Chrome settings:
•             Click on "Show advanced settings…"
•             In the subsequent "Privacy" section, click on "Content settings…"
•             In the subsequent "Protected Content" section, make sure that the following box is checked "Allow identifiers for protected content (computer restart may be required)".
We are working with Google to allow better detection of this condition, so that the client will return a 3368 (User cancelled or user settings disallow operation) error code when the box is unchecked.
