Can't download from Hulu

by 7Steve - 4/2/09 2:12 PM In reply to: guys get a life. lock me up for recording the Radio Station by The_killershark

None of the Hulu capture programs I've tried works at all. They all say the capture FLV file or can somehow get the true URL from Hulu. Not in my experience. Yes, if the URL ends in FLV as it does on most sites. However all Hulu video URL's end in "PSA". and so far not even a program that calls itself Hulu downloader has been able to record it! Realplaer and replay both only down load the HTML target not the FLV file. I end up with nothing downloaded except the link to the page it was on. useless!

Dude Natronx,
You should try to not be such a ******.

Sorry if I'm being a little harsh.
Peace out

It solves a problem.

by Renegade Knight - 11/13/08 12:03 PM In reply to: Replay Screencast by Natronx

Netflix streams live. There are too many issues wiht live streaming that cause interruptions in your bought and paid for rental and lessen your enjoyment. If you could download it first (which Netflix doesn't let you do) and then play it back you can avoid the bandwith issues that stop Netflix in it's tracks and stops your movie while it waits.

Seemless plaback vs. indeterminate and choppy playback. I'd say he's got a solution to a problem.

Site Sadness

by EL1TQFV5 - 3/27/08 7:40 PM In reply to: (NT) How to download Hulu shows by EL1TQFV5

After composing what I hoped was a detailed and helpful message on saving and converting Hulu saved video to portable format using open tools and a CL script, the preview button ate my post. Sucks that. Not giving the site a chance to fool twice and shame on me once.

Its too hard to use

by Clio76 - 3/10/09 9:51 AM In reply to: Free Alternative by jashsayani

I got sick of using orbits grabit++ tool although its free there is just too much stuffing around and it doesn't work all the time. I then started using Applain but that doesn't work any more so I am now using Jaksta http://www.jaksta.com. Jaksta works all the time and has worked perfectly since I bought it a few months ago

Also consider "Download Helper" a Firefox plugin

by Vance14 - 6/23/08 7:59 AM In reply to: How to download Hulu shows by Slikkster

I saw this on Tekzilla and it is great! It is a video catcher that you can add as a plugin to Firefox and a little icon sits on your toolbar. If you want to download any video that is on the page you are visiting, just click that icon and it will allow you to download the video into Flash (which can then be converted to whatever you like with other software). It just grabs the source, so you don't have to stay on the page while it downloads.

As always, legality issues are another matter.

Question

by Slikkster - 8/6/08 2:12 PM In reply to: Safari can download flash video without any plugin... by Nicholas Buenk

The program I referred to at the outset of the thread will download the shows without any of the built-in commercials. In other words, the Flash files are separated, and its just content. Do these other options presented here work the same way?

The macosxhints page does not help when downloading videos from hulu. It only downloads the advertisements.

I just tried it. Am on MacOSX 10.5.4.
