First step: install this

http://code.google.com/p/get-flash-videos/

Then install the hulu plugin. Done.

Thank you kindly, Hyc!

If I may offer some additional instructions:

Code:

get_flash_videos --add-plugin http://gitorious.org/get-flash-videos-plugins/gfv-plugins/blobs/raw/release/Hulu.pm

You will also require libcrypt-rijndael-perl, which is easily obtained.

Enjoy it while it lasts, Hulu is likely reading this right now. Watch the commercial anyway and don't share the videos. I, for instance, only download so I can watch it without stutters.

Agreed. Hulu is pretty quick to react when they see posts like this. Oh well, I wonder how many hours until this is broken again.

Funny, I actually like the Hulu commercials, they're a lot less intellectually offensive than what's on my cable TV. I watch bunches of them at once. But I watch them separately from the actual shows - interruptions are annoying, no matter how cleverly they're written. And yes, I only use this because the videos are unwatchable using the crap Adobe software.

Note to Hulu, and other media execs: you already got my money in my cable subscription fees. Don't make me regret paying you, otherwise I'll just cancel that too.

its a shame but is worth it to learn how rtmpdump works? it seems hulu is finding new and creative ways to make it hard to get their vids. has anyone found out how to work around type 9? will ther be a ttpe 10? is it complicated? i'm a newbie to all tis.

The main developer has been inactive for over 2 months.
The patch for type 9 RTMPE handshake will probably have to come from someone else.

jsmith · #10 06-18-2011, 10:36 AM

oh okay.

has anyone really found a way around this new type 9 stuff? i mean somebody must be up to the challenge.

is the issue that hulu plans to work with new versions to make this harder? i mean once somebody figures out how to get around type 9. will there be a type 10 and 11?

i mean is there any hope for somebody to crack this? i only ask because i could have learned this rtmpdump stuff. but it seemed complicated. i just now tried to learn this and this type 9 thing just came out.

where can i check to see if somebody has cracked it?
