RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - locomot1f - 2012-07-19

@crawl,

in reference to your statement
Quote:I think many users are getting confused by this when it's the librtmp file that's the root of the problem

now that nightlies are starting to get rolled out for iOS ATV versions, how do we get this version of librtmp adopted? I put in a message to the iOS forum, and NedScott says that it has to be updated by the people who maintain RTMPDump.
But if there are two versions out there... how do we know which one is the right one? how can we find out where this one came from?

I think all of us would appreciate any help you (or anyone else out there) can give to this. It will start to become very annoying to have to continuously re-write this file with every update.

thanks in advance... to you or whomever decides to look into this more.

I have an Apple TV black I am trying to install Hulu plus.

I do have XMBC loaded and working on the Apple TV.

I have tried to load and install Hulu, but it will not work? It simply shows script error and fails.

What possibly could be wrong? Very disappointing.

Welcome to the XBMC forums.

I can see you are disappointed.

and get back to us. if you haven't figured it out by this long thread, there's an answer to almost every situation somewhere in here.

For those who are having trouble playing files, try using Akamai in the streaming tab of settings. This worked for me - I am running Openelec.

Question to BlueCop: is it possible to have added to the context menu to queue items into now playing? Sorry if this has been asked before.

thanks for your hard work on this plugin, its the center of my tv experience and made it
possible for me to get rid of cable once and for all. One quick request if I can, it would be
nice to be able to add the videos to tags in the upcoming frodo release.

Not sure if you've gotten this fixed yet... and i haven't seen anyone else chime in.

i'm not familiar with the Windows setup, so the logs aren't familiar to me, but it seems as if you are trying to access Hulu Plus content, but have not supplied proper login / pass credentials.
Check the configuration for the add-on to make sure of this. Obviously, if you are not subscribed to Hulu Plus, you can not use it.

Use http://unblock-us.com/2529.html
you can watch BBC iPlayer UK, HULU US etc with it and on all devices if you set it on your router. They also have 7 days free trial.

Even though hotspot shield works when I watch Hulu stuff in a browser?
Even though hotspot shield was working, albeit it uselessly slow, about two weeks ago with XBMC and the Hulu plugin?

Also, if you have a recommendation for a VPN, that'd be nice. Thanks!




RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - Varming - 2012-07-29

On my ATV2 iOS 5.x with XBMC 11 I get this very strange thing with Hulu. I can a lot of commercials but it never shows the episode I've chosen.

http://pastebin.com/22tJi2Ni

UPDATE! This posting fixed the problem for me: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=121023&pid=1106494#pid1106494


RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - BlueCop - 2012-07-29

Varming: the log cuts off before it gets to the main video attempting to play.

I would do 3 things to try to fix it.

1. go to http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Librtmp and upgrade to the latest librtmp for your device.
2. disable network pre-roll in the settings. It causes a problem.
3. switch to a different CDN in the settings.





RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - locomot1f - 2012-07-31

HULU PLUS IS AVAILABLE ON APPLE TV 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AND THE UPDATE DOES NOT AFFECT YOUR JAILBREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOKE UP THIS MORNING AND IT WAS THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

now if we can only convince them to put on ESPN....


RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - BlueCop - 2012-07-31

locomot1f: It might not have all the content. It will only list "living room" tiered videos. anything web only won't be listed.


RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - locomot1f - 2012-07-31

@BlueCop... that's true. it's just the Plus Content.

i haven't been to the site lately, so I'm not educated on "living room" videos.


RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - BlueCop - 2012-07-31

I have been a plus member as long as plus has existed. I tried some of their other solutions but the differences in content availability is too restrictive to be useful.

There are 4 tiers. Web, Hulu Desktop, Mobile, Living Room. Web is everything, HuluDesktop is everything minus crackle content, Mobile and Living Room are the Plus licensed content. Tthey even restrict some Mobile that you can get in Living Room last I checked. It causes too much confusion and frustration. They restrict their paying customers from something web users get for free. It makes no sense. They need to license everything everywhere for them to be competitive.
