| Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Nissi1 | 09/12/03 15:55 | I started using Chrome this year and found it is faster. Therefore I used it primarily to watch movies and tv shows from such websites as HULU, Justin.tv, Fancast, etc. Recently, whenever I attempted to watch a show on HULU I would get the followin |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | dwight.stegall | 09/12/03 22:27 | this is not a browser problem. no reason to clear the cache. hulu simply didn't have the video available when you wanted to watch it. all you can do is wait until it is available or watch it somewhere else. |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | dwight.stegall | 09/12/03 22:30 | that happens to all of us occasionally. they probably pulled the video to see if it was breaking some company's copyright. |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Nissi1 | 09/12/03 22:58 | Dwight, thank you for your response. However, when this occurs, in every case I am able to use another browser and view the same video instantly. Also as I stated in my post, I am unable to view all of HULU's videos from their site in Chrome. Howe |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | robertcompton | 09/12/17 19:05 | Yes dwight you are wrong(so bery wrong), Nissi gave me an idea for watching hulu and it worked. Internet Explorer works with Hulu very well. Chrome seems to be blocked. Thanks :0) |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | cubedbee | 09/12/18 17:07 | This happens to me almost every time I try to watch a video on Hulu. I always just press refresh (F5), and the video loads successfully on the second try. It's annoying that I have to do that every time though, and wish Google would fix whatever i |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | thehoser | 10/01/05 17:12 | I have the same problem. I will have been watching shows on hulu and I go to a popular episode it says this, but oddly the show actually starts sometimes and then about 5 seconds in it says this. Like others I paste the URL into another browser and |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Nissi1 | 10/01/05 18:56 | Hello thehoser, The problem of watching HULU on Chrome is not just with Win7. As I stated above, my OS is Vista. I have since reinstalled Chrome but have not tried using it to watch HULU. I will try tonight and if it does not work correctly, I wi |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Nissi1 | 10/01/05 19:15 | I realize this is a double post and I apologize for the inconvenience since it was not my intentions to post the information as an Update to my original post. I searched again to determine if anyone may have found a solution to this HULU/Chrome prob |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Auralis | 10/01/05 20:25 | I have the same issues. I love my Chrome and I am running it using Windows XP but Hulu videos are notorious for "Sorry, this video is currently unavailable. We apologize....If this message appears repeatedly, you may need to clear your browser cache |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Nissi1 | 10/01/06 15:48 | I tried the "flash" suggestion last night and it works, temporarily. It allows one to watch an entire show but it must be set again for the next show. This is not an option for me. I love selecting many shows at one time, putting them into the Que |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Nissi1 | 10/01/06 16:49 | I went to HULU's Discussion board and found numerous posts of people unable to watch HULU using Chrome: http://www.hulu.com/discussions/9 Many of HULU's shows can also be found on Fancast.com. Perhaps you can view them there using Chrome. |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Ahavati | 10/01/08 17:50 | Add another to the masses of difficulties with Hulu and Chrome. I will add that sometimes the movie will start, but after about five minutes it freezes and then chrome crashes. But mostly it won't load, or I get the unavailable message too. I am al |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Ahavati | 10/01/08 17:51 | ps: I have been using Chrome for over a year with no problems until recently. Also, my OS is Vista as well. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Chrome and Flashplayer only to have it revert. |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | recourse | 10/01/08 18:26 | I am also having this issue on more than one machine. Work and personal laptop were switched over to the latest chrome 3.0.195.38. I am on WINXP SP3 on both machines. The issue can be resolved most of the time by a refresh of the page. While yes |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Ahavati | 10/01/08 18:36 | How do you change the settings in Flash player? I just received a message saying (paraphrased) that a script in the movie was causing Flash Player to respond slowly, which would subsequently cause a machine freeze. |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Nissi1 | 10/01/08 21:00 | To change flash settings: right click on HULU's viewing screen, select settings. I watched HULU on Chrome for several months also before I started having problems. I no longer bother. I use IE or FireFox to watch HULU. |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Ahavati | 10/01/09 9:12 | It looks like I'm going to have to. Altering the Flash settings didn't work for me. I am beginning to wonder (due to that Flash message I received) if it's perhaps something between Flash and Chrome rather than Hulu and Chrome. Thanks for your answ |

| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Nissi1 | 10/01/10 18:16 | Hello Ahavati, This is the first time I have even heard of that website since, as far as I have noticed, it is not mentioned on the original HULU website. I also once had problems with lagging, which is why I started using Chrome to view HULU. Chr |

| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Nissi1 | 10/01/11 3:51 | At the bottom of HULU's page is Support FAQ. It really does not offer much assistance since HULU nor Chrome has answered the question why Chrome users cannot view HULU's content. However there is a modicum of information under Streaming about the f |
| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | mecostello1 | 10/01/19 7:04 | I absolutely agree with "theposer" post on 1/5/10.

| Re: Unable to Watch Movies From HULU | Nissi1 | 10/01/21 0:35 | I uninstalled Chrome and installed Chrome Beta. I am now watching HULU without any issues using Chrome Beta which, for me, works as well as Chrome. Chrome Beta also has available addons, i.e. WOT.
