I don't have a playready failure, but I do have an issue where when I add my new ram it won't play back old recordings that are CP. Is there a way to add the new ram without tripping this? I am going from 667 ram to 1333 and 8 gb to 16. I tried even leaving the old ram in just to see if it would fool WMC into allowing the other to play and no such luck.

If you change too much hardware between the time the recording is authored and the time it is played, PlayReady will not allow you to play the recording. The only solution is to reverse your changes.

So this might be my issue as well. I copied all my recorded content from my 18TB RAID to a single 3TB drive in preparation for setting up a SD DVR system. Now 24 hours later my system popped up with PlayReady Update and it failed.

Thank goodness I found this post again! I tried all the other ways of resetting DRM and they didn't work - just cloned my small SSD to a larger one and was having playready issues - this fixed it and WAF is back up!rasheedb wrote:this worked for me:

Unfortunately this method didn't work for me. I have PlayReady update failure on a brand new Win7/64 install. Fortunately not a huge problem for me because I seldom if ever have the occasion to watch protected content.
