Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!funny thread with a poll, lol!
i've test installed the latest version of GetFLV (8.9.4.2) and visited hulu, myspace, and crunchyroll. it sometimes catches a url. rare thing. didn't download any of the secure rtmp (rtmp, rtmpe, rtmps) links. i will give it another try on another pc (a cleaner pc ;) ) but if it fails again, fare well. EDIT: i've tried GetFLV on a clean PC. no results on Hulu. it does download songs from myspace. and on colbertnation.com is downloads only 31secs and in §$%&!ly manipulated video resolution (dimensions). the resolution is lower! verdict: if you're new to video stream downloaders, you will like getflv because it has a beautiful and functional GUI (graph. user interface). Very logical (and not too difficult to understand). it does download your secured/protected/encrypted video streams (hulu, etc.) but as long as you dont pay 50bucks, your videos are just 30secs in length (and in reduced resolution). The coder is Chin*se like all the other coders of famous download tools: + Thunder (Ch*na) + Flashget (Chi*a) + NetTransport (NetXfer) (Chin*) + HiDownload (C*ina) + CJB (CooJah + Blader) (*hina) + StreamTransport (Ch**a) + etc. |

Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!I tried GetFLV many times, and always get very low speed, and not only with RTMP/E websites, but with normal HTTP ones. For example with YouTube, I get 30-50 KB/s, as an average d/l speed; and 100-110 KB/s, as peak d/l speeds. And with RTMP/E sites like Crunchyroll, its even worse, I get 20-25 KBs as an average d/l speeds, and 30-40 KB/s as peak speeds.
It would be good if GetFLV has an options to split the d/l processes in threads, which would improve itself the d/l speeds significantly. With other free programs like, StreamTransport or CooJah + Blader (which I can split the d/l in 10 threads), I can download with much greater speeds. By the way, the program's GUI is very buggy and unstable, which makes quite difficult to use it. I'm afraid GetFLV really needs to fix these crucial problems, if they wanna give some decency and quality to their program; otherwise, there are others excellent quality alternatives already available, and even great free ones, to choose from. :rolleyes: |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!I might give StreamTransport a shot...what is your average when using it (StreamTransport) ?
And what do you think might be the reason for GetFLV slow downloads? Edit: I just tried StreamTransport on a video from Hulu and in the top box (search box) inside of the S.T. Browser it had this in every link: Code:

Download from Hulu from outside the US: GetFLV + IE's Fiddler2 + HuluHi guys!
First off, great ressource this forum is! So I managed to get Firefox to show me Hulu.com videos even if I'm out of the US, but then Replay Media Catcher 4 does not capture RTMPE streams even with the latest rtmpdump plugin :( I heard GetFLV still does the job, but the problem is that I can't get Hulu to think I'm from the US due to it's relatively non customizable options of it's browser. AFAIK, GetFLV gets its proxy/connection settings from IE's. I was not able to view Hulu videos with IE until I installed and enabled Fiddler2 and added: Code:
oSession.oResponse.headers.Add("X-Forwarded-For", "<random US based IP"); Apparently, GetFLV does not used the "fiddled" settings so there is no way for GetFLV to spoof me :( Any ideas ? Thanks. |
Re: Download from Hulu from outside the US: GetFLV + IE's Fiddler2 + Huluhi. i tested GetFLV positive on the Hulu website, that is correct. I am not sure but GFLV adopts proxying information from your system's standard web browser application software tool. If your standard browser (or default browser) is Firefox, then it will use Firefox web browsing technology in its GUI. but i am not sure as i said. some getflv tech support should explain the details.
i dont live in USA and i dont have any interest in watching Hulu. that's why i dont know of any recommendable FREE solution for US-outsiders like you and me. Watching Hulu from US-surrounding countries like Hawaii, Seattle, Canada, or Alaska territories :D is always possible if you are willing to pay for some vpn subscription service with a monthly fee. I performed my Hulu w/GFLV testing with a temporary proxy of type B-3 (afaik) and with such a setup you can download only 300MB videos. (and my chosen B3 had many downsides, so i wont recommend or detail on this, sorry) The vast majority of other proxy types (A series, C series) dont work with Hulu, and you'll get some error message by Hulu saying "you are trying to access Hulu with proxy methods from outside the US, sorry". Hulu is very smart in this respect. Whenever it detects any kind of proxy (it is very easy to tell if someone's using a proxy or not. i can tell.), it refuses to play/stream the ****ographic material :D If Hulu is important to you, then invest in some vpn service (there are hundreds (or thousands?) of offers on google.com!!), also get a purchased version of GetFLV (the Golden Version) (the Pro Version wont help ... ;) ), and then you're all set. vpn costs maybe US$2.99 per month if you go for the cheapest. Good luck. And no more fiddeling!! :p Get more information here: http://stream-recorder.com/forum/hul...ore-t8641.html According to that information, Hotspot Shield is a working FREE solution. |
Re: Download from Hulu from outside the US: GetFLV + IE's Fiddler2 + HuluThanks for the reply.
I can view Hulu from both IE and Firefox fine now, but still, I will get the annoying "You're not from the US" popup in the GetFLV browser. I do not want to invest in an option that Hulu can just blacklist on any given day. Plus, I'm currently only looking forward to getting a few shows off Hulu. |
Re: Download from Hulu from outside the US: GetFLV + IE's Fiddler2 + HuluHotspot Shield works
|
Re: Download from Hulu from outside the US: GetFLV + IE's Fiddler2 + HuluJust tried it and Hulu detected I'm using a proxy.
EDIT: Actually, it worked. Had to disable Firefox's "Modify Headers" extension. :) |
Re: Download from Hulu from outside the US: GetFLV + IE's Fiddler2 + HuluHow's GetFLV doing?
|
Re: Download from Hulu from outside the US: GetFLV + IE's Fiddler2 + HuluWorks, but 50% limitation.
I noticed the downloads don't start right away, sometimes you need to start the same download twice for it to start (file.flv, then file (1).flv, etc.) |
Re: Download from Hulu from outside the US: GetFLV + IE's Fiddler2 + Huluyayah. GetFLV isnt perfect (neither are the other download tools).. and with some websites it takes some trying and re-trying and re-trying (=restarting the appz, or reloading the webpages) until it does what we expect it to do.
Just figure how complicated or complex webpages nowadays are. But you name it. In the end and after all, if you try a bit.. you'll be able to download the hulu stuff, thanks to GFLV. This is where are other tools fail because they're not uptodate anymore. So thanks to this forum, you got the info how to save your Hulu stuff. And congrats to you that you've been a successful applicant of that knowledge. And most of all, thanks to getflv support team for the frequent updating of their only product: GetFLV. |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!As of today, GetFLV + Hotspot Shield does not spoof me anymore on Hulu.
Good thing I did not buy it. |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!Thanks strafingmoose for the heads up. Thanks also to Sarge (who was first to report!). It is correct to do so. This way GetFLV support team gets notified and also gets the chance to intervene with an updated program version. Let's wait and see...
Last time i had used Hotspot Shield too and the stream download worked. Can you at least still watch Hulu stuff thru GetFLV's internal browser? On Monday i am going to sign up for a paid vpn and then do myself some testing of GFLV on Hulu. |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!I can watch Hulu videos (from outside the US) trough Firefox (default browser) fine using the firewall method + X-Forwarded-For method that was probably documented here numerous times.
I think GetFLV needs to focus on one browser technology and really import all of its settings like plugins but within its own browser. The bit that's missing seems to be the fact that in Firefox I'm using the "Modify Headers" plugin to spoof my country of origin, but GetFLV doesn't use the plugin in its browser :( EDIT: Using Procmon, I monitored GetFLV and it seemed to be peering into my Firefox favorites -- I guess for data mining purposes LOL. |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!Today is Monday. For the sake of supporting GetFLV, i have subscribed to paid vpn services. And what can i say? GetFLV still works like a charm!! :cool: Here a coherent series of screenshots of a video aired/broadcasted/posted today, Monday 2004-04-04. This is a brand new (short) video on Hulu!!
![]() ![]() ![]() Conclusion: proxies of the cheaper :D types (A series, C series) dont work well with Hulu (or GetFLV), but a robust vpn should work -- as i have (again) proven here. |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!My point was that in Firefox, I do not need any such proxies to view Hulu videos out of the US.
I block a few ports, use the "Modify Headers" add-on, there it is. GetFLV does not seem to import fully the default browser's plugins and addons. |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!*OIC*.
ok, i get your point. In both cases (yours vs. mine) we need to employ some tricks to watch Hulu in our preferred browsers from outside of the US. You do it with ports blocking and plugins, in Firefox, and i do it with vpn services which works with Firefox, rtmpdump ( :rolleyes: ), and Internet Explorer. the difference is that at the current state GetFLV works very well with my trick (vpn) while it doesnt work so well (yet) with your trick. If we are lucky some day in future GetFLV will work with Hulu without the use of vpn services (my trick). I wouldnt mind. Would save me some monthly bucks :p Till that day (may come), paid vpn is probably the most robust strategy to download Hulu videos with GetFLV from outside the US. Proxy types are easily recognized by Hulu and not yet officially implemented in GetFLV's software architecture. |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!You can try to use freeware Proxomitron instead of Firefox plug-ins.
Also try to compile the latest version of rtmpdump from SVN. |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!I am a Hulu Plus subscriber. I can download regular Hulu files okay, but not Hulu Plus files. I had been using StreamTransport. I was able to download Hulu Plus files with it until it stopped being able to download from Hulu at all recently.
Has anyone been able to download Hulu Plus files? I am trying to download the 720p files (having a resolution of 1280 by 720). Has anyone been able to do this? |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it! |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I downloaded the most recent version of GetFLV from the website, the trial. I wandered over to Hulu from its internal browser and started up one of the shows. A ton of RTMPE instances showed up. Not sure which to download for the show, I randomly tried several until saying "f**k it" and downloaded the whole lot.
It resulted in every instance with a Red X through it, and all corresponding .FLV files were 0k in size. What am I missing? Man, I just want this so I can grab one freakin' show I missed on the weekend :P :) Any ideas? |
Re: GetFLV can download Hulu.com videos now? I have problems with it!you may want to publicize the testpage url (video link!) you are keen on. then other users can try to reproduce your red X's. your situation sounds good so far. it may be that the trial version of GetFLV doesnt allow you to download full-length videos.
You know, other stream catchers have similar limitations, see for example: Quote:

Re: How to download videos from www.Hulu.com onto your computer?I have not found GetFLV to work. At least the trial version does not work for Hulu downloading.
The website shows a single row to select for downloading. But when using it in the trial, it lists a dozen rows - you can't tell which one is the right one for the Hulu video that is playing. They also do not let you test a Hulu video during the trial. You get a message that the file is larger than allowed during the trial. And they do not respond to emails abut the above two problems. |
Re: How to download videos from www.Hulu.com onto your computer?Quote:
2.You can select different bitrate (HD 1000K,600K,400K...)videos to download from your dozen rows. 3.You can download 10M or 50% of your hulu video during the trial. (Cracked version doesn't work). |

GetFLV cannot download Criterion movies from Hulu PlusI've updated to the latest version (9.0.2.0) and have no trouble with any regular hulu episodes/movies or regular hulu plus episodes/movies.
When I try to download a movie from the Criterion collection (http://www.hulu.com/criterion/) this is what I see, despite the fact I am logged in and an active Hulu Plus subscriber ![]() When I hit log in and enter my details it says "Your account is not Hulu Plus account." (Yes it is not correct grammar on their end). Often I can then browse to a different web page, then hit the back button and the video will start playing correctly, but no stream URLs will appear. |

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...Hi;
I've been a registered user of GetFLV for a few months now and up until recently I've been very contented with my purchase. Recently, however, new versions only let me download from RTMPE streams (mainly hulu) immediately after the first installation. I've been using 9.0.2.8 because that's the last version I could find that works, but recently it's been telling me it can't work with the latest flash player and won't record streams either. I'll go on a video and instead of a list of available streams to record appearing, the list remains blank. The only way to fix this is to uninstall and then immediately re-install the program. Before this I was seriously considering buying a lifetime licence, but this has been going on for a few months now and I am very dissatisfied with it. |
Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...I have just installed GetFLV 9.0.3.5 and downloaded a hulu video (i am from outside U.S.A.). no problems here!! at least 2 of the alternative urls for 1 streaming option (e.g. 1000K i.e. 480p) download fine.
