We cannot help you, and we would not if we could.
Your free licence was for one year, and that has expired. You no longer have the rights to play the videos without purchasing a new licence from the original manufacturer.

Any attempt to break the encryption with be in breach of your licence, and may well be illegal as well - so it would constitute malicious code.

Your only reasonable option is to ask the seller to extend the license validity.
Should not be a problem since you are already a legitimate user.
What they don't want is you giving the tablet to someone else so he can see videos without buying the course.
