Edit: solved i just used a paid app that gives you 3 free downloads

Hey, so I have some downloads on Amazon Prime that I want to remove the DRM from, however I only find deleted posts on Reddit or some sketchy programs/sites I really don’t trust. Does any of you guys know how to remove the DRM?

I’m willing to do a lot of work if I have to as long as it’s free.

Also, if it is an application that does it, I’d prefer FOSS even if it’s inferior.

Maybe I can reward the first person with a solution with some movie of choice😉

    I like the idea of just recording it, because it is simple.

    But, if you are beholden to doing it another way, can you tell us how you ripped the content? Did you use yt-dlp?

    Whatever the case, you need separate audio and video streams. They’ll probably both be encrypted.

    You’ll need something like mp4decryptor (https://github.com/axiomatic-systems/Bento4) and and widevine keyguesser thing. I haven’t done this in about 5 years, so forgive me.

    There is a specific order of operations that I don’t exactly remember but you’ll need to find up-to-date instructions.

      I downloaded it on amazon prime on my phone, then pulled the files onto my laptop via Android debug bridge with root privileges

        That might help? This is a piracy place but things that use Widevine and constantly changing. That file on your phone will only play on your phone because that app has the decryption keys. The easy apps that do this are not free apps. Screencasting and recording is something you could just start doing now.

        You could also tell us the name of the video and someone here might be able to find it.
