Can't find download button for deACSM

[2scre]

I read this: https://mtsknn.fi/blog/bye-acsm-and-drm/

I downloaded the deDRM but couldn't find the download button for deACSM.

Thanks. I downloaded and tried to load it but there is an InvalidPlugin error: The plug in ... is invalid. It does not contain a top-level __init__.py file

I'm going to assume you are on Mac, and maybe using Homebrew.

Whenever I need to have this plugin load in calibre I need to run this before launching:

brew unlink openssl@3

Then after quitting calibre:

brew link openssl@3

The unlink step should let you install directly in calibre.

It seems release version has issue with the current version of openssl, and has for some time now.

There is a beta version that's supposed to work with it, but I prefer the above workaround until the release version is fixed, as I do not want to run my Mac without latest version of openssl installed.

I do not know when that will be though I've asked on the DeACSM thread.

I only need to use the plugin 1 or 2 times a month, the rest of the time it fails to load in calibre but I don't need it to.

I'm on windows.

Download the zip file and add it to plugins in calibre. Don’t open the zip file, use it as it is. Once it is loaded you’ll need to set it up. Hope this helps

The DeACSM plugin is in the calibre plugin index. There is no need to download and install a file. In calibre just to to Preferences, Plugins, Get new plugins, scroll down to DeACSM, select it, and click the Install button.

That's not immediately obvious - the name of the MR plugin thread is ASCM Input, and the title of the Github Readme is Calibre ACSM Input.

Thanks. I successfully installed it but for DeDRM tools I'm still getting the same error when I try to load the zipped file.

Unzip the main DeDRM archive and install the one called something like DeDRM_Plugin.zip.

Thanks. It worked.

Always use the .zip (and "unzip it") of the Latest release here:
https://github.com/Leseratte10/acsm-...lugin/releases

... and use with :
https://github.com/noDRM/DeDRM_tools/releases

Do not unzip the ACSM release .zip file (currently DeACSM_0.0.16.zip). calibre will import the .zip file. If you unzip it, it will not work. The DeDRM .zip file has two .zip files included so you will need to extract those two .zip files before installation.
