Summary0002215: DRM-related conversion errors result in support calls/refund requests
DescriptionWhen users convert DRM-protected tracks to other formats (either manually or using the synchronization auto-conversion facilities) and the conversion fails, they receive a message along the lines of 'Cannot decode file xxxx'. The net effect is that they think that MM is buggy and doesn't perform as advertised (this week alone I've received 3 e-mails on the subject).

Consequently, I think we need to add a string along the lines of 'Cannot convert file(s) due to DRM restrictions: xxxx.wma, yyyyy.wma... [OK]'

Setting as 'Immediate' because we need to get the string in.

Fixed in build 921.
 - Due to plug-in structure it's currently problematic to show a debug message corresponding exactly to the error occured. For that reason I'd propose a message: 'File %s cannot be decoded. It is possibly due to DRM restrictions.'

Let me know if you want to change the wording.
