OK Take your time and fix that plugin to be used even much easily and error freely!]]> Suwadith FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins Thu, 21 Jun 2012 11:32:59 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10080/_subject_#msg-10080 Re: Hulu Plus 720p Plugin Request https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10080/_subject_#msg-10080
First some background info: Hulu streams are served by one of these three content delivery networks:
- Akamai
- Limelight
- Level3

Each video has several streams to choose between, typically one stream from each CDN for each quality. FRD doesn't attempt to download from Level3 streams at the moment (I disabled it due to the earlier issue).

Now I found out that Limelight stream servers reject any non-US IPs and drop the connection (causing the issue you're having). Akamai servers do not do this. FRD chooses the first best quality stream it encounters, and sometimes it is a Limelight stream and sometimes an Akamai.

You can solve this by using a SOCKS proxy so that the RTMP traffic can be tunneled through the proxy. I might be able to put some kind of a workaround in the plugin, but I have to sleep on that...]]> ntoskrnl FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins Wed, 20 Jun 2012 19:08:02 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10079/_subject_#msg-10079 Re: Hulu Plus 720p Plugin Request https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10079/_subject_#msg-10079 i'm waiting for your test results!]]> Suwadith FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins Wed, 20 Jun 2012 18:37:50 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10078/_subject_#msg-10078 Re: Hulu Plus 720p Plugin Request https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10078/_subject_#msg-10078 -------------------------------------------------------

No i use only HTTPS high anonymous proxies!
While i download 720p i dont get this!
it's totally debugged!
But this happens only in 480p
but when it starts happening its like unstoppable!]]> Suwadith FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins Tue, 19 Jun 2012 17:39:33 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10075/_subject_#msg-10075 Re: Hulu Plus 720p Plugin Request https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10075/_subject_#msg-10075
First of all, are you using SOCKS proxies? RTMP traffic cannot be tunneled through a HTTP proxy, and the Hulu RTMP servers refuse connections from non-US IPs.

Do you remember this? 
Now I understand what the problem is. It has nothing to do with login. There are certain kinds of servers that don't respond to FRD's requests at all. Plugin v1.1.6 doesn't attempt to download from these servers. Please report whether it works now.

this same prob come in 480p as well
not always
sometimes
sometimes it starts downloading sometimes not

This happens only for the videos that have a max quality of 480p
this isn't regular
sometimes this happens
but when it starts to happen
it continues forever!

But this doesn't show any errors
It just says download complete
But 0KB downloaded!]]> Suwadith FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins Mon, 18 Jun 2012 05:31:35 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10046/_subject_#msg-10046 Re: Hulu Plus 720p Plugin Request https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10046/_subject_#msg-10046 ntoskrnl FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins Sun, 17 Jun 2012 11:36:45 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10045/_subject_#msg-10045 Re: Hulu Plus 720p Plugin Request https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10045/_subject_#msg-10045 Suwadith FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins Sun, 17 Jun 2012 11:27:51 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10044/_subject_#msg-10044 Re: Hulu Plus 720p Plugin Request https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10044/_subject_#msg-10044 Please change back to 1.1.6 even if it doesnt change to proper episode name!

- Then restart FRD, which resets the log, so that the log only contains relevant information.
- Then reproduce the error. Please only start one download task, again to keep the log concise.

1) When you use a free account (or no account), all videos download fine.
2) When you use a Plus account, 480p videos download fine.
3) When you use a Plus account, 720p videos fail with a login error.

Is this correct? Are you sure the error is a login error?

Or is there some other issue, such as that the download seems to start but doesn't?]]> ntoskrnl FreeRapid Downloader - Plugins Fri, 15 Jun 2012 18:31:25 +0000 https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10013/_subject_#msg-10013 Re: Hulu Plus 720p Plugin Request https://wordrider.net/forum/10/9973/10013/_subject_#msg-10013 -------------------------------------------------------
