Hulu: Dirt not recognized

[cain]

My wife works the early shift and I purchased the suite to record Dirt from Hulu.

Oddly, it doesn't recognize the show with AV or Media Catcher (is it because it is TV-MA?)

All commercials, clips and other shows/movies are captured. Just not Dirt?

Hi CAIN

Are you able to record other shows on hulu, and only dirt (on hulu) is giving you the problem?

Sorry for the delayed response. :-)

Yes, all shows that do not require login, work.

I tried using AV and saw a different feed pattern than I do with the FLV. With the secure items there were 10 to 20 chunks observed by AV but none of them were the actual show.

I'd prefer to capture it with the software, but I do have a PCTV to GO HD and can capture my DirecTv HD with it as an alternative (it just doesn't have great timing controls and sometimes crashes on Vista.)

Is there a solution for this yet.

We have a new version of Media Catcher coming out that includes a fix for the tv-ma shows, such as dirt. Should be out by next week!!

That's great to read!

I look forward to testing it out on Hulu.

One other item to try - longer than 1 hour on Hulu. It might be my connection, but I have noticed an incomplete capture (Firefly:Serenity in 480p for example)

I'll definitely put the new version through the paces.

You are correct, there has also been an issue with longer files getting dropped connections. This should be fixed as well.

Even better to read!

Waiting for the recording to complete (using MC 3.0&#223...


First attempt (http://www.hulu.com/watch/15733/dirt...x-0,vepisode,1) failed after 117MB....

Recording sites that use RTMP will take a bit longer than they used to since the new Flash Media Server destroyed the "download super fast" hack (this is why connections were dropping with large files)

So, now it records in real time.. but, atleast you'll get it.
