MiMMS 2.0.0 now uses libmms from <http://sourceforge.net/projects/libmms>. I don't know if they have any better support for this than the old internal MiMMS code did, but it's worth a try.

If it doesn't work, there is most likely nothing that MiMMS can do, as it either would require a change in the MMS protocol implementation, or some extra smarts at a media player level.

Great tool!

Is there a way to download DRM-protected files? I've tried doing this a number of times, but for some reason the files aren't able to play -- they fail just after trying to acquire the license.

Also, in comparison to for example tools for Windows (eg. SDP http://sdp.ppona.com/), the MiMMS downloaded DRM files are always a bit smaller (something missing in the header?), while non-DRM files in comparison are always almost exactly the same size.

Are you guys still supporting this project, and if so, are you aware of any DRM limitations?

Thanks much.

David
