Does anyone know what CDM stands for or refers to? Saw the acronym mentioned in a lot of the repos.

- natdempk 5y agoThanks for the explanation. So it seems like these repos are just scripts to download content and decode it once you have a CDM then? Seems like the actual CDMs here are ripped from devices and not actually included in this leak from a cursory glance. Edit: Yep this is what is happening, but there is an L1 CDM in the Lenovo repo. I should read the article before jumping in to the comments/code. :)
