we all know the problem with other sites not loading like the one you just mentioned, its connected with flash problem, i think the only way to solve that is to downgrade your flash to version 9, since i tried mandriva 2009 they are using that version and have not much problems with sites who is more to flash like youtube etc.debniak wrote:I just installed Mint for the first time (ver 6 RC1) and everything works great except that videos on http://www.hulu.com will not play. Can someone tell me how to fix this? I've looked around and see no reference to web-based video streams problems.
The flash and java work fine on other sites, just not on Hulu.
Please, don't make me go back to Widows!

Re: Help Please ... no web video playback
debniak,
I watch Hulu most every day. While testing Mint 6 RC1, as well as using Ubuntu 8.10, I have noticed that Hulu sometimes takes about two minutes to get around to displaying the video. It used to be instantaneous, so the first time this lag happened, I was concerned. I waited it out, and then everything worked as normal. I am not sure why there is such a time lag, but yeah, it must be related Flash 10. This is NOT a showstopper, but it was confusing the first time it happened to me. I have only had to refresh a page once with Flash 10, whereas it was quite often with the Flash 10 betas. I have no plans to downgrade at this time since everything works, and surely will get better and better. Hulu will eventually catch up with Mint.
