Latest gull plus videos not streaming on XBMC #120

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to play the latest episode of any TV series
2. The video will start with an Ad.
3. It will return to the episode menu after the Ad without playing the video

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The latest episodes are available for streaming on Hulu Plus site, but they are 
not being played on xbmc. For some tv series, the episodes are not even updated 
in the list even though they are available in the site for streaming online.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I have ATV 2 4.4.4 with XBMC Eden 11.0-0~b3

Please provide any additional information below.

I can confirm this exact behaviour.  Only getting a pre-roll ad then get 
dropped back into the menus.  Hope it can be fixed! (please)  :)

Me again...Possible Temporary Fix Here!

I was just playing around a bit and (for me at least) turning on "Network 
Pre-Roll" in the streaming section of the add-on settings gets the Hulu Plugin 
working correctly again.  Turn it off, no show plays after the ads, turn 
pre-roll on, the show plays.  Haven't been using it enough yet to make sure the 
streaming continues...

I tried the same settings, but it didn't work for me. I changed the pre-roll 
ads to 0, and this time, there was just welcome screen and it returned back to 
episode list without playing any video.

I think I've narrowed it down, and here's what works for me:

1) Turn on "Network Pre-roll" with at least 1 "Pre-Roll Ad"

2) Any setting with "Pre-Roll Ads" set to "2"

Any other settings fail to play the video.

I hope I've clarified enough to be helpful...Sorry to hear it if this doesn't 
work for you; hopefully someone that knows what they're doing will be able to 
fix things soon...

I'm seeing this issue. I tried changing ad settings and no luck. However, if I 
wait awhile and then check the Hulu "Now Playing" list (long press 'menu' 
button at top Hulu menu level) it shows the stream I opened (4 instances) 
spaced out with "AD 1", "AD 2", etc.

Selecting one of the non-AD streams will play properly.

Well to me, it actually worked only for one show. I'm still facing the issue 
with other shows.
