Divx & Drm

[greyhound]

Anyone know how to get rid of DRM in DIVX-files? Please?

I have some legally bought DIVX-files, but would like to extract some good scenes and pictures to the forum.

If you can answer Greyhound's question send him the information by Private

Only in the US, really, so far as I know.

It surely depends what country you live in!

But as posters at FacialForum we have to respect the laws in the country where FacialForum is based (or hosted).

In fact I do not know exactly where FacialForum is located and the laws/rules there.

Somebody will hopefully enlighten me!


But still...
If you have some info to help me regarding the subject then please send me a PM or e-mail!

I have legally bought the drm-protected files, but would like to make some extractions and vid-caps to this community (and some of them are good).

Well as far as I can ascertain, the IP Address is assigned to Germany, but whether that is where it is located is another thing altogether!!

it is illegal to reveal how to circumvent DRM

I doubt it. Google removing drm, or, for example, tunebite.

Illegal? I don't think so.

Franklynxxx is quite correct. It is most definitely illegal in the U.S.A., not to mention other countries that have agreed to enforce U.S. copyright law, to "circumvent DRM". The reason Tunebite gets away with what they do is precisely BECAUSE they DO NOT circumvent DRM.

Tunebite can only record pieces of music that are purchased legally and that you can then play back and re-record legally. The music must still be purchased from online music shops.

From their own site:

"Tunebite: The DRM killer – A legal license to convert

Instead of illegally defeating copy-protection measures, Tunebite uses an innovative, technically optimized process that records original files as they play and legally saves the recordings in unprotected digital formats. Tunebite can only record pieces of music that are purchased legally and that you can then play back and re-record legally. The music must still be purchased from online music shops."

Fingers, you may view this as a matter of semantics, but believe me, DRM circumvention and what Tunebite does is two entirely different things.

If you are interested, google and read up on 321 Studios vs Motion Picture Association of America over Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
And if you're really a masochist, just read the 1998 DMCA.

By the way, Britain is in bed with the U.S. on this. In fact, one of your own countrymen was given a cease and desist order for a program he wrote called DVD Decrypter. The program itself can still be found, but without being updated to circumvent the latest schemes from Macrovision, Sony's ARcoSS and other copy prevention software, well, DVD Decrypter is quickly becoming obsolete.

To clarify: What I am looking for is a "Tunebite" for DivX files with DRM (licenced files).

No problem, Hashman. I'll take your word for it, and I thank you very much for the interesting information.

So far I've only used it on legally purchased WMV downloads. I guess your technical description explains why it's so slow. But I can live with that as long as it's legal.
