When using GetFLV, what's the correct way of logging in to my Hulu+ account so GetFLV can detect the HD streams?

Should I log in using the window within the GetFLV program, or log in using Internet Explorer normally (i.e. not using the window within the GetFLV program)?

Use the GetFLV browser - login to Hulu Plus and you will get the 720p 1500 BR stream. Make sure you are watching a HD program...not all Hulu Plus is HD.

Thanks, repped. That's what I thought I needed to do, but for some reason, I'm not getting consistent results when logging in from within GetFLV. Sometimes it logs in properly, but sometimes it doesn't. Not sure why that happens. I think I need to adjust my Internet Explorer's security settings.

Try logging in by visiting the following page directly, rather than clicking "log in" somewhere on a page;

https://secure.hulu.com/account

Unless you log out, you shouldn't need to log in again unless you delete cookies, etc.

Thanks, a rep for you too. I'll use that link from now on. Now that I think about it, I may have sometimes inadvertently deleted my Hulu cookies when clearing out my other junk cookies.

I have figured out how to download 3200BR stream from Hulu Plus using Getflv, I will not reveal in the open forum. This is very easy to do if you just read previous posts and experiment. There is a clue in a recent post that will unlock the 3200BR stream. I cannot reveal as that will alert Hulu.

I have decided to drop downloading Hulu Plus using GetFLV because it is time consuming and not worth all the CDN changes and the fact that this program may download, but does in a sloppy way that makes the effort pointless for video collection, it pauses or freezes video for a second or two upon initial start of playback from finished file...when I used other programs this was not the case, but they no longer work and Hulu has won the battle...which means I don't care about telling you how to copy the 720P higher BR = 1500, 2000, 2500 and 3200. The Hulu Desktop URL will give you the 720p higher BRs instead of hulu.com just make sure that you have a valid Hulu Plus account. The link is in a previous post on last page. I believe that knowledge is power and that a lot of folks within the forum communities withhold straight forward ways to do things for "I am the all knowing oracle and will do it for you" reasons...I am just tired of waiting for the experts to figure this stuff out and am greatly offended by the lack of responses in all streams including the GetFlV Thread. The fact that I had to stumble across this method to get 720p 3200br stream means that these forums are useless.
