RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - d3rider2k5 - 2013-05-01

Does anyone have a way to get the geo lock removed to watch the us stations? I did the DNS server thing using tunlr. But sometimes it just slows down all the other streaming option on the ATV1 via sports devil or navi-x etc. I read about the realdebrid crap but who wants to do that? any ideas?


RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - DFergATL - 2013-05-01

I am having a very bad time with Hulu today. Rather then try to just expline ill give an example:

I play part of the newest episode of "Colbert Report" I play part of it. I then stop playback to do something else.
I then go back to the exact same video I was just playing but now get a script error.
I may try a few times and it may or may not work again. I am now going through this same thing on every Hulu video. It may work, it may not. It may work one, twice then just stop. I have the xbmc.log file and would like someone to take a look please. But, I need to know where to upload the log file.

@artafael

I think I got it.

Here is an other piece of information. If I go into the Hulu plugin and go to my "Queue" I can play anything that is in there. If I go to my "Subscriptions" and try to play the same video, that I just played from my "Queue" I get the error....go back to the "Queue" play the same file just fine again. If I just browse though "Popular" or any other category I get the error. The only things that work are things in my "Queue" and they seem to all work well. Everything else is a, well I don't know...

I spoke too soon, now that isn't working either. However sometimes it does, then it doesn't....they maybe it will once... very crazy.

Try unblock-us.com, they have a free one week trial so you can figure out if it affects your addons the same way tunlr.net did.

Enjoy.


RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - slices - 2013-05-07

I use tunlr.net along with dnsmasq running on my NAS to only forward certain traffic through it.

Having some problems with the hulu addon at the moment. Watching Once Upon a Time a couple of minutes in it freezes but audio continues. Happens on all qualities, anyone else getting this?

Hulu website is ok on PC.


RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - DFergATL - 2013-05-10

I am not getting library updates from HULU. I have both the Hulu plugin and the Hulu Library Updater. Until recently this was all working fine. I have it set to update every few hours. Over the last few days the automatic update has stopped. No errors on screen that I have seen. If I go into the hulu plugin and do a context menu on my "Queue" or "Subscriptions" and do "Add Queue/Subscriptions to Library" then it updates fine. I can tell you specifically it isn't creating the .strm files unless I do this. As soon as the .strm files are on my HD the auto update adds them to my XBMC library. How do I troubleshoot this?

I've been dealing with this for a few weeks. Everything seems to be working for me, except for Colbert and the Daily Show. When I tried either of those, I'd get the script error. I've found that when I go to hulu.com and try to play these shows I am asked to choose "which ad experience I would prefer".

So when you go back to your XBMC Hulu add on settings, under "streaming", change "preroll ads" to 0. This makes those shows work fine for me, but then I need to change the preroll settings back to 2 to make anything else work.

annoying, but not sure what options we've got.


RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - DFergATL - 2013-05-10

I appreciate the input but, I am not getting any updates from my queue or subscription unless I do it manually. Can some one please give me some idea of how to troubleshoot this??


RE: [SUPPORT] Hulu Video Plugin - kevinkelm - 2013-05-11

I have the same problem with add from queue. The problem seems to be Hulu has a limit on how many programs it will provide to the plugin for the queue. Marking watched in XBMC does not mark as watched on Hulu so your queue just keeps getting bigger. The solution is to log on to hulu from a computer and remove old items from the queue and xbmc will update again.
