You'll have better luck with this in the Technical DVD-ROM Hacking thread, Moved.

Firmware Toolbox 4.0 is suppost to read the .bin file and show you the key.

hmmmm

try changin the voltage on your programer for that chip, and every dump, check if Toolbox responds.

3.3v, 5.0v (don't go too high or blow the chip, you may also check by using a voltage meter while your drive is powered on, and see what it uses)

If you are aware of this, than there's nothing I can think of.

If FW TB doesn't read it, you can open it with a hex editor and check lines 4000-4400 (I think lol, double check that before you do) and that should be your dvd's key.

I have edited two posts in this thread.  There is to be no offers or requests of drive dumps on X-S as this is MS copywritten code.
