Microsoft WM-DRM and IBX 11.0.6000.6324

[swizzel]

Anyone with the new license want to try doing the rollback?

I'll pm the instructions if you need it.

i had reinstalled a fresh copy of winxp sp2 and got updated to wmp11 with the 6000.7000 ibx. so i uninstalled it and the runtime and deleted the drm folder and installed wmp9 then individualized (my ibx version is now 11.0.5497.6285) and then upgraded to wmp11 v11.0.5705.5043 and everything is working great

[mysekurity]

Swizzel: That is great news. I have no idea why they would always have their own updater one version behind, but hey, I'm not complaining....

I advise you to quickly upgrade to 11.0.6000.7000 before MS creates an update :D

ok done. now what?

FU4WM gets an error which closes it.

As for the EXE file you need to compile it...

Surprisingly FairUse4WM works fine with IBX 11.0.6000.7000 for me. So did mirakagi. :confused:

[budbud]

D-Shadow.... what operating system are you running... tried with vista on my laptop & xp on the desktop. I can't get anything to work:(

[Ajax_Undone]

D-Shadow.... what operating system are you running... tried with vista on my laptop & xp on the desktop. I can't get shit to work:(

Hes running Lier OS. Its where one lies to make their story sound good...:mad:

It is impossible once they change the version and encryption value's in the IBX the crack's (ie Fairuse/mirakagi) Don't work... (thats the point of updating them)

(unless he stumbled onto some rebuild that nobody knows of)...:)

If its still working he is still using IBX 11.0.6000.6324 or earlier...

[karltpb]

I knew someone would say that, but I indeed have FairUse4WM working with the lastest IBX.

All you need to do is proceed with a supported version of IBX. Once you get the required keys in blackbox-keys.txt, the same keys can be used with IBX 11.0.6000.7000. At least that's what I did and it worked.

Here's the proof

[Ajax_Undone]

Your using it just as a port for the old keys you already have...

I defy you to look for new keys and post your results...

Because thats the problem looking for new keys not re-using
the old

Hell i use drmdbg New and old to use decryptit to blank the DRM... The old propagates the new...

[karltpb]

I ran mirakagi a couple of days ago, with IBX 11.0.6000.7000, and surprising it added a few more keys to blackbox-keys.txt. I now have a total of 10 keys in my blackbox-keys.txt, which is not quite normal. I wish I had saved the results, as I'm not able to duplicate them now.

[sectroyer]

It's normal that your blackbox-keys.txt file works with FairUse4WM since this file contains "old keys" that work with your "old files". If mirakagi did extract any keys it means it did extract "wrong version" of the "old keys" but you still don't have a "new key" the one that you did get with 11.0.6000.7000. If you will now download/buy any file. It will be "secured" using the "new key" so FU4WM will not decrypt this file :)

[karltpb]

I tried it out and everything still works fine, with new tracks too. Strange, isn't it?

[sectroyer]

I tried it out and everything still works fine, with new tracks too. Strange, isn't it? Probably there is some flaw in your tests. Thats all :)

[karltpb]

Hmm... I buy music off a few different stores and I'm able to decrypt every track. Napster, Yahoo, Rhapsody, 7Digital; FairUse4WM works for pretty much every WM-protected file for me.

[SojaRinn]

i am fairly new to most of this but have used FairUse before, but now i cannot. last time i used it and it worked was around sept 5.

i bought a month to napster and when i try to run anything thru FairUse, everything "requires a different key"
i played songs in WMP and then tried to NoDRM them. i did a system restore to no avail.

i have WMP 11.0.5721.5230 Mirakagi 11.0.6000.7000. 5 keys loaded. whenever i try to Recover Keys using IBX Indiv02.key, i get this:
Provide interoperability for Windows Media files has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

any help would be appreciated.

[budbud]

I'm running windows XP Version 2002 Service pack 2

mirakagi says:
Mirakagi starts, code version 0.9
Found 3 keys in keyring.
It is finished.

When I run FairUse4WM it tells me 5 keys loaded.... when I go to recover keys before I start it states:
Using IBX: "Indivboxkey" 11.0.5497.6285 (778KB)

When I recover keys it states:

I 'm using WMP version 10.00.00.4058

no matter what file I try it says... does not appear to be licensed to you

WTF am I doing wrong... Getting ready to smash this thing..lol Thanks for any help in advance

[Foambullet]

I've got a problem that I haven't seen in any other posts. I don't have a c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM folder. Regedit says that this is the DRM folder but it doesn't exist. Mirakagi gets an error that it can't find the file, and I can't find any place where DRM files are kept on my hard drive.

I have validated purchased videos so I know that my computer is capable of working with Windows DRM, so I am at a loss.

I have WMP 11.0.5721.5230 running on Windows XP Pro 64-Bit. I do have hidden folders visible and I tried a copernic desktop search for .key files but I couldn't find any.

For the sake of completeness here is the mirakagi output:

I'm not entirely sure of the details, but the new version of IBX (11.0.6000.7000; the one you have) does some sort of obfuscation of the drm folder and stores the key in some other way. I'm sure someone else on this forum knows the details.

I ran into the same issue when I started experimenting with these DRM removal tools. You would need to downgrade your IBX to use that tool, or use one of the other methods (drmdbg + FreeMe2 or drmdbg + unDRM) that works with IBX 11.0.6000.7000.

[Foambullet]

Argh, yeah I noticed that, but I wasn't clear that IBX could have a different version number than WMP, I thought they were tied together.

Thanks for clearing that up.

[SojaRinn]

StreamRipper: when i try to copy/paste "PROGRAM FILES" following all directions, I get "Cannot Copy wmpband It is being used..." how do i fix this?

[endgame]

Doesn't mirakagi.exe decrypt IBX 11.0.6000.7000?

[sectroyer]

Doesn't mirakagi.exe decrypt IBX 11.0.6000.7000?
No oit doesn't. The only thing that is able to handle 11.0.6000.7000 is new drmdbg :)

[mysekurity]

In case anyone is wondering, neither the new Napster (4.0) nor the new Zune (2.1) software update 11.0.6000.6324 keys. Plus, Zune works with FairUse still!

(XP SP2... will try on Vista...)

[Seraph_Six]

This is odd, but very happy for me. I updated the Zune software on my desktop (Vista Ultimate) and was surprised that it didn't upgrade IBX to .6000.7000, like you just noted.

I had previously tested the last version of the Zune installer on an XP Pro virtual machine and found that it upgaded the IBX to .6000.7000. I wonder why they would remove that feature in the installer.

[mysekurity]

Seraph_Six: Maybe they've noticed these tools are actually helping them by selling more music....nahh.

[YnEoS]

I have vista and WMP 11.0.6000.6324

and when I run FairUse4WM
windows sends me a message saying

also the instructions say to delete the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM, and it appears I don't have one of those.

Also the instructions say to run the sample video for a few seconds, but I can't play the file because I don't have the rights...

Help Please.

I'm talking about the sample video that comes with FairUse4WM, that they give you to practice on. And the stuff I'm personally using is from Ruckus, which is legal and gives you the license, but it still won't work for me.

[YnEoS]

I just noticed that my IBX is version 11.0.6000.7000, even though WMP isn't. Is there anyway to get it back to the same version as WMP?

[JeffAlso]

I'm talking about the sample video that comes with FairUse4WMThat one doesn't work anymore. If you're looking for a working DRM test vid try http://www.ezdrm.com/demo/newmember/snowboard_300.wmv or any of the other demos at that site.

[YnEoS]

Anyone care to tell me if there's a way to get my IBX to an earlier version if my WMP is already an earlier version?

[mkanet]

How come its taking so long for Mirakagi to have support for 11.0.6000.7000.

[grahamgreenefan]

I have no trouble rolling back WMP, but when I do Rhapsody always re-installs WMP Runtime 11 and I end up with 11.0.6000.7000 again. Has anyone figured out a way around that? Maybe I should just try Zune or Napster... but I really like Rhapsody!

[mkanet]

When I installed Rhapsody, it brought me up to version 11.0.6000.7000 as well. This method of DRM removal doesnt seem to be a dependable solution; at least for the long term.

[capted]

I was a "Happy Camper" with Rhapsody and WMP 11 beta 2.
My IBX was version 11.0.5497.6285
Rhapsody has forced an update on me and I reluctantly tried to install it after not being able to find how to decline the update and use my present version of Rhapsody.
The install kept hanging on the "SDK patch" install.
I finally updated WMP to the current version 11 with an IBX version of 11.0.6000.7000.
Rhapsody then installed.
Needless to say, I have not been able to get fairuse4wm to work with the "New" Rhapsody. I have the latest version of fairuse4wm plus mirakagi in the "Coolstuff" Package.
Rather than keep spinning my wheels, has anyone been able to remove DRM from the Forced Rhasody update downloads? I am still running XP SP2 with all the updates.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

capted,

if you had bothered to read through any of information concerning IBX 11.0.6000.7000, you would have immediately learned that FU4WM does not work with this IBX version. You need to use the latest version of drmdbg in combination with either freeme2 or drm2wmv.

I have read and posted to threads on the subject of DRM removal. I find it very presumptuous of you to assume that I am a person who goes "Ready, Fire, Aim". My hope was that someone had found a way around the forced Rhapsody update.
I took heart in a post by milOtis, whom I notice has about 4 times as many posts as you BTW.
Here is a paste of his post:

"sorry dont use anything other than FairUse4WM.

here's my WORKING setup:
Operating System: Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit
IBX Version: 11.0.6000.7000
Services used: only Rhapsody Unlimited
unDRM Program: FairUse4WM 1.3 (FIX2)

all new downloads, as of today, STILL work for me using FairUse4WM 1.3 FIX2.

::: milOtis"

Now, here was someone using Rhapsody with IBX Version: 11.0.6000.7000.
I think I had a perfectly legitimate question in wanting to know if anyone else had success.
I sincerely do appreciate your help in posting the below references in case I have to switch to drmdbg.
I am still hoping that one of the lurkers on this forum will come up with the "fix" I need.

You do have a valid point about the large red font. I guess it was a bit of overkill. I hope the blue has a calming effect.:) Especially when your question has been answered here dozens of times already.
I am still waiting for the answer to my question.
Might I suggest that before you assume someone has not read the posts before asking a question; that you be familiar with the posts on the subject yourself. If so, you would have noticed that someone, indeed, had claimed to have been successful in using fairuse4m with IBX Version: 11.0.6000.7000

[JeffAlso]

As far as I know, milOtis is the only user who claims to have FU4WM working properly with IBX 11.0.6000.7000. However, theres an entire thread here discussing the fact that this is not possible. Draw your own conclusions.

To make this clear for you, the answer to your question is that you need to use the latest version of drmdbg in combination with either freeme2 or drm2wmv (and optionally automation scripts/utils, and asfbin for reindexing as needed). Where you get your content from doesn't matter (Rhapsody or otherwise), your IBX version is what determines the toolset necessary for DRM removal.

There ya go.

[capted]

Jeff,etal,
Apparently no one claims to be successful except mil0tis as you stated.
I was hoping there would be a fix because I became very addicted to fairuse4wm and did not want to learn a new system, especially if it involves not having a convenient GUI interface.
As others have probably found, WMP 11 is not the problem with Rhapsody. I rolled back to WMP 10 and had not removed the DRM folder before I did it and found Rhapsody worked great with WMP 10. The only problem was when I checked the DRM folder, there was IBX 11.0.6000.7000!
I removed the DRM and updated my player and got the old IBX back but then Rhapsody wouldn't run without doing an upgrade.
I have followed the references you gave me and I keep hitting a dead end of files no longer available.
If you or some other member could reference a tutorial (or write one) on how to find and use the latest version of drmdbg in combination with either freeme2 or drm2wmv, you would be doing a great service to us all.

Fellow Members,
In my past few posts I have been trying to find a way to use Rhapsody with IBX Version: 11.0.6000.7000.
This is because to accept the Rhapsody update, you end up with IBX Version: 11.0.6000.7000 installed in your DRM folder.

I may have stumbled upon a fix, I'm not going to try to duplicate it, but see if it works for you.
I am now running Rhapsody 4 with IBX Version:11.0.5497.6285:p

Here is what I accidentally stumbled on that seems to work.
1. Accept the forced Rhapsody update.
2. Open the control panel/add remove software. Remove every reference, including updates, that references WMP 11 and roll back to WMP 10
3. After rollback, check the DRM folder. If IBX Version: 11.0.6000.7000, Delete the DRM folder and upgrade as published many times in this forum. If IBX Version: 11.0.5497.6285,
leave it alone.
4. Without deleting the DRM folder, upgrade WMP10 to WMP 11.
I had a copy of WMP11 beta2 that I used. WMP11 final might also work but I don't want to take a chance disturbing my setup now.:)
5. Check to see if Rhapsody 4 will open.
6.If it opens check the DRM folder and if the version is before IBX Version: 11.0.6000.7000; then mirakagi and fairuse4wm should work as before.

Good Luck!!!

I'm going to try that if I get up the nerve haha, I have the same issue where Rhaspody is prompting me to update. I currently have a workable IBX (I forgot what it is right now) and Zune working with fairuse right now, so I might just uninstall Rhaspody and go with Zune Marketplace at least that way the songs I purchase can stay on my zune. As MilOtis stated earlier in another thread (I feel for you bro, I think this is like the second time you've been banned), it does seem like you have to baby your computer for fairuse to continue to work. I'm about to buy another computer for seperate use and use fairuse for my music purchases.

Where you get your content from doesn't matter (Rhapsody or otherwise), your IBX version is what determines the toolset necessary for DRM removal.

Exactly. But besides lossless DRM removal tools (http://undrm.info/remove-DRM-protection/) like FairUse4WM + drmdbg + drm2wmv / freeme2, AutoMate unDRM, you can use lossy ones like SoundTaxi, TuneBite, MuvAudio, freeTunes and NoteBurner.

Obviously lossless software gives better quality and works faster.... but there are lots of users who will use lossy software instead, because they

won't download potentially risky software from file sharing services,
won't use CLI applications
won't spend time on installing a fresh copy of WinXP
won't be able roll-back Windows Media Player
...
