My application receives content over a network using another protection
methodology other than Windows DRM. It securely gets the data and
decrypts it, but then I want to play the content and still keep it
secure. The Secure Audio Path sounds interesting and would by useful
for my purposes, but it looks like the content must be protected by
Windows DRM to use the secure audio path.

Is it possible to use the secure audio path with content that doesn't
have Windows DRM? Could you maybe somehow temporarily add DRM without
having to deal with certificates etc?

Why? Secure Audio Path doesn't work anyway, not even as it's supposed to
work.

No. drmk.sys and drmkaud.sys heavily verify all involved modules, so you're
bound to MSDRM.

No. Technically, it would be possible, if you could inject your modules
into the DRM client part. About trivial, if you know how to
reverse-engineer, but for sure not legitimate.
