The first time I selected it, I was presented a menu and changed the hulu grabber to '/bin/cat /var/tmp/huludata.xml'
When I selected finish it tried to run I guess but it times out with an message "Can't find '/bin/cat"
How do I get back to be able to change the path?
Thank
go to the setup menu. you should find mythvodka section inside of the streams section. be careful not to have any quotes on the text string

Ok, got past that part, am getting the "Sorry old Bean", now looking at the fixes in the R6 thread.
It looks like the libswfdec-dev package is out there but not libswfdec. Do I need both packages?

it appears that both are available. be sure to do a apt-get update. i know i needed dev because i didnt grab it initially and got compile errors due to missing header files. the dev package has those header files that will be needed when you compile decrypt-pid
if memory serves, apt-get will install it in a different location and you will have to modify the include in the compile command shown on the R6 page
Code: root@mythtv:/usr/local/bin# apt-cache search libswfdec libswfdec-0.6-90 - SWF (Macromedia Flash) decoder library libswfdec-0.6-90-dbg - SWF (Macromedia Flash) decoder library libswfdec-0.6-dev - SWF (Macromedia Flash) decoder library libswfdec-0.8-0 - SWF (Macromedia Flash) decoder library libswfdec-0.8-0-dbg - SWF (Macromedia Flash) decoder library libswfdec-0.8-dev - SWF (Macromedia Flash) decoder library
once you get past that, be sure to get the 3/9 fix for the hulu script and to run the cron_hulu_grabber.sh script manually the first time. if you do not, the front end will hang for 45-60 minutes.

Please excuse my n00bness, I am current thinking of creating a super simple mythbox for internet streaming only (budget) and maybe for a simple mp3/dvd player. However, I don't even want to mess with this if hulu is just going to break it constantly. My question is: Can hulu still be viewed through the mythbrowser? I know it would be an annoying interface, but if hulu wants everybody to use their site then by all means I'll use their site. I have been searching for a solution to watch hulu on my tv. I don't have a playon supported device (ps3, xbox, popcorn hour...) and waiting on playon to support my wii is crazy since I have no server to support it. If I have to build a server I mine as well build a simple htpc.
Thank you

I don't know about the mythbrowser, but hulu can be accessed from firefox running on KM R5.5.

I don't believe the Myth Browser supposrts flash so Firefox is going to be your best bet. Although it actually Iceweasel that you will be looking for.

Just wanted to say thanks for keeping this all updated. I have the command line apps working, and I'll get the GUI tested tonight when I get home. I'm much further than I ever have been before. Mythbuntu 8.10 here. I just used apt-get to get the packages needed and modified the include path for the gcc command in the wiki. /usr instead of /usr/local.
I was using the .7 official release, and of course, got the "sorry old bean" message when trying to play something. I found this thread via google. Very helpful. Too bad Hulu (well the content providers anyway) are being such jerks. I don't mind watching the occasional ad if they will let me watch at all. It's a great way to get old stuff I wouldn't buy on DVD anyway.

Finally getting back to trying to get this installed but when I do the apt-get update it ends with the following error.
Code: Reading package lists... Done W: There is no public key available for the following key IDs: 4D270D06F42584E6 W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems Any ideas on how to fix this? Then when I try to install libswfdec-dev I get this: Code: root@mythtv:~# apt-get install libswfdec-dev Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Package libswfdec-dev is a virtual package provided by: libswfdec-0.8-dev 0.8.4-1 libswfdec-0.6-dev 0.6.8-1 You should explicitly select one to install.
Which one do I need?

Which one do I need? I installed .8 because that is what is shown in the R6 instructions. However running hulu_grabber_cronjob.sh takes about 5 secs to run and doesn't give anything useful. I have installed the fixes from the R6 wiki but still nothing. Does anyone else have hulu working right now or did they break it again?

Thanks for the information. That got me a little farther.
When I tried to build the swfdec I got the following error:
Code: checking for LIBOIL... yes checking for CAIRO... yes checking for GST... no configure: error: Couldn't find GStreamer 0.10.11 and gstreamer-pbutils 0.10.15.
I tried apt-get install but no go. How do I get these?
Thanks

I used aptitude to install swfdec but apt-get should work fine too. I installed libswfdec-0.8-0 & libswfdec-0.8-dev and all the dependences which included gstreamer if I remember right.

Well made a little progress but not much. I did and
Code: apt-get install libswfdec-0.6-dev And did see that it pulled where it pulled GStreamer 0.10.11 and gstreamer-pbutils But I still get the same: Code: checking for CAIRO... yes checking for GST... no configure: error: Couldn't find GStreamer 0.10.11 and gstreamer-pbutils 0.10.15.
when I try to configure to make swfdec

I'm still trying to build Build swfdec
I downloaded GStreamer 0.10.11 and untared it to /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10.11
This is my configure command
./configure --disable-gtk --includedir=/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10.11
However I'm still getting the following message:
checking for GST... no
configure: error: Couldn't find GStreamer 0.10.11 and gstreamer-pbutils 0.10.15.
What am I missing?
