Error with plugin on Windows Server 2008 Enterprise - jsd115 - 2009-01-11 21:03

I'm having an issue running the plugin on Windows Server 2008 Enterprise. It's able to get a list of episodes and whatnot, but when I try to play an episode, it says "Opening stream" for an instant then nothing happens. I haven't made any modifications to the plugin script, just downloaded it and installed it. Part of my log file is below for debugging purposes. Thanks for any help!

alphabetical - hrcolb0 - 2009-01-12 05:26

the lists post alphabetical backwards. Is there a way to fix this? btw, great work. It is getting me to learn python.

I don't think its alphabetical, at least not for me. For me, it lists by air date/episode number, backwards. I think it has to do with how hulu lists things on their site. They always list the newest stuff first.

I have to click each episode twice on linux but it works.

- hrcolb0 - 2009-01-13 01:39

nope, its straight up backwards in the category listi-ngs and others, too.

Code:
a = [66.25, 333, 333, 1, 1234.5]###this would store eps
a.reverse()# reverse ep listing

for eps in a:

Just reverse the list before you add the links

Great plugin!

Observations:

1. mine seems to time out when loading the list.
2. If I comment out the get show or episode list, it will time out quickly
3. resume from x:xx.xx doesn't work

Awesome work though!

01/09/09 release of the plugin

Is there an option to download the videos from Hulu? I tried to switch to filemode and copy, but is doesn't work.

I don't think this is possible with the current implementations of the rtmp client.
maybe we can get some devs to implement this.

take a look at rtmpdump post here

project url http://sourceforge.net/projects/rtmpdump

it includes scripts for hulu and iplayer to save videos.
