AACS Keys - A program revealing all AACS Keys needed to decrypt (HD DVD and Blu-ray) - Page 23

denret · 2nd October 2009, 15:10

I've been trying to get this program to run, but can't get past error message: "Could not open file c:\\ProcessingDeviceKeysSimple.txt Error: Process MKB, error: -1
when I attempt to run from the command function.

My aacskeys folder is under my C: directory and the above mentioned txt file is directly under the aacskeys folder, not under a sub folder. Based on what I've seen in the forum archives, that is correct. Confused???

Can anyone enlighten me??

Change directory to the aacskeys folder first. Then run the exe.

denret · 2nd October 2009, 19:51

Thank you for your prompt response. However, I'm still confused as to where to put the text file. Here's the file config I've presently got:

Local Disk (C

aacskeys-o.4.0 (folder)
bin (folder)
win 32 (folder)
aacskeys.exe (app file)
ProcessingDeviceKeysSimple (text file)

My command line from the C prompt in DOS is as follows:

c:\aacskeys-0.4.0\bin\win32\aacskeys.exe e

Where the last e is the drive. When I run this command, I get the error message in my last message. What am I doing wrong here??

880 · 2nd October 2009, 20:28

you didn't use the cd command

Code:

cd c:\aacskeys-0.4.0\bin\win32\
aacskeys.exe e

denret · 2nd October 2009, 20:39

Heres exactly what I typed after opening the command screen:

CD C:\ (to change to the C: prompt)

Now I'm at the C: prompt and I typed:

aacskeys-0.4.0\bin\win32\aacskeys.exe e

Is this wrong....

Thanks

aacskeys looks for the Processing Key file and the Host Certificate file in the current working directory, thats the directory from where you issue the command. In your example this is C:\, apparently this is not the directory where these files reside, they are in aacskeys-0.4.0, so you have to change into that directory first.

Your steps should look like this:

Code:

C:\Users\KenD00> cd c:\aacskeys-0.4.0
C:\aacskeys-0.4.0> bin\win32\aacskeys e

I had the same issue http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=149727
Place the ProcessingDeviceKeysSimple.txt here C:\ ProcessingDeviceKeysSimple.txt right where the error is telling you it's missing and ALSO the same folder as aacskeys .exe and all will be well

That's unnecessary if you're smart enough to cd to the aacskeys folder before you try to run it.

denret · 3rd October 2009, 14:28

Thanks KenD00 for the feedback.

Yes, by using your syntax, I can get the command file to work. However, now I'm getting an error message "c:\aacskeys-0.4.0\bin\win32\aacskeys.exe is not a valid Win32 application."

I've also noticed that when I click on the aacskeys.exe file from Windows, I also get the same error message. It seems to me that earlier when I did that, I got a flash of the Command file on the screen. Not sure whats up all of sudden. Maybe I should delete and reload aacskeys files?

Either way will work, I had typed the command so much trying to get it to work
I eventually got lazy and cut and pasted the path in command prompt and than ran the exe
Guess that is where I made my mistake

KenD00

Thanks for your assistance in this issue.
I got it going by reloading the aacskeys files. It now runs, but I get an error message as attached. Reading through some of the archives, I see this may be related to drive patching?

KenD00 · 5th October 2009, 07:44

Hmm, the recent Host Certificate should work for all known MKB versions, are you using the 0.4.0c release?

What MKB version does the disc have that you are using, and is this the newest disc you ever played back with that drive? Run aacskeys in verbose to get the MKB version of the disc, like

Code:

aacskeys -v e

denret · 5th October 2009, 20:36

I assume the Blu ray disc does not have to actually running, only mounted to run aacskeys, and the mentioned query?

denret · 6th October 2009, 15:50

Tried to run the aacskeys -v e routine. Had no luck. Is that also run from the same prompt?

KenD00 · 7th October 2009, 11:47

Well, uhhh, of course, you are just supplying some different command line arguments...

Ok, it looks like you have not really an idea of what are you doing here so basically i wonder what are you actually trying to achieve? With the recent Host Certificate there is again a much more unexperienced user friendly free way to decrypt your HD-DVD / Blu-Ray - recent BD+ discs (read: after the initial setup insert a disc and press 5 buttons) available, maybe this is the better solution for you.

ttwater, you cannot do what you are trying to do. Each AACS-protected disc has a "host protected area" that the drive itself will refuse to deliver to the desktop PC directly. When you copy a blu-ray disc to an ISO image you don't get the data from the host protected area. The missing data must be read in a special way from the drive when the original blu-ray disc is inserted. I'm sorry, but the image you have is useless unless you already have the disc keys.

Thanks for Rupan's reply, you let me know more.

your mean is that the daemon tools + iso environment is different from the blu-ray drive + blu-ray disk, now i have a new question, What is stored in the "host protected area"? What is it used for? what is its function?

thanks again...

Rupan · 18th December 2009, 06:54

It contains the decryption key for the protected blu-ray video data. If you have the key already then you can decrypt the video. I believe AnyDVD HD comes with a large database of known keys, so it would be worthwhile for you to download and install it to see if it can handle your particular disc image.

Thanks, Rupan.

Yes, AnyDvd works well, but I want to achieve the same function without AnyDvd. it seems impossible, maybe i should give up.

Rupan, do you have any suggestions?
