Sorry, I've retired the device, and did not use Hulu. I bought the device mainly for You Tube. I use the Google Chromecast now which currently only supports You Tube and Netflix

I don't use Hulu, but if you lower the resolution it may work. Even though the device claims 1080P I run at 720P. It's faster and most feeds only supply a signal at 720P or lower anyway.

Hi Liz! The NS-WBRDVD does not have the Hulu option. Mine has Netflix, Pandora, and Cinema Now. It has been some time ago, but I think I recall when I first connected it there was no Cinema Now. There was a software update notice, and when activated, Cinema Now appeared along with the other two. I have not used Cinema Now, but Pandora and Netflix work very well.

i would like to use this aquos tv with hulu as well, that would be the best app. i bought roku, but that seems pointless on an already wifi tv. Maybe if we bug sharp enough they'll figure out a way to add it.

No. You have to have the subscription to run the app. I tried running Hulu through the browser, but they have the mobile flash locked down. That being said, between Crackle, Youtube, and Crunchyroll, there isn't much you will miss. The flash on board did ok with some webstreams (I really only tried SyFy's to watch some Eureka).Oh, and another thing that sucks about Hulu is they kill the stream to the tablet if you plug it in using HDMI.

Can you help? We have tried two LG Blu Rays and have had hundreds of minutes of discussion with LG support and no one can help us. We cannot get connected to UTube or Netflix wirelessly. Our signal is strong. The system tells us to "try again" and then locks up. Any ideas?

There is no Amazon native app that I can see on it as of current firmware update. If the content you downloaded through Amazon isn't protected by any kind of DRM and is just a video file it will most likely play, this thing hasn't refused to play anything I've put in it so far. I just upload all the files to it via LAN and things play just fine.

Yes, Hulu Plus has a native apple tv app, but if you jailbreak and install xbmc and add 1channel and icefilms, you can get everything for free through there!

No, it doesn't work with the Amazon App...also doesn't work with Vudu anymore. It does work with iTunes. Can't speak for other apps...I don't use Hulu Plus or Netflix.

I have the same problem. I bought this expensive unit and looked forward to watching the Band of Brothers series in Blu-ray. It does not work. What a big disappointment. Way to go LG for not keeping the updates going. I may return this unit for something else.

Have you considered a Roku box? Designed to stream Netflix and Amazon content; does not appear to work with Hulu.

I have never reset my tv but the apps on the TV suck. My Hulu app barely plays. I called samsung about the issue and tech support really couldn't help. So I don't use any of apps on the TV; I have an apple tv. I suggest you do something like that if you can't get the apps to work. The tv is still really awesome...the picture is amazing!

After trying NVIDIA drivers and Flash updates, I found that I fixed it by changing the Hulu resolution setting from automatic down to a lower resolution (288p) in the Setting at the bottom right (make sure to press the Update button)

I am having the same problem. I am in the same boat as you...I tried redownloading and restarting. No video, just sound.

It now does. It was in a recent update. Works like a charm now. Still doesn't have free Hulu though. Still only Hulu Plus.

It definitely does not. There is no Hulu or Hulu Plus app in the Google Play store, nor can you access Hulu from the browser. The two companies have yet to reach a content agreement... The negotiations have stretched on for years at this point. This is a well-known and much-discussed drawback to Google TV. As with most consumer electronics, there are workarounds, however. It is possible to enable your Google TV device to play Hulu, but they involve hacking or "rooting" the box... Ever heard of "jail-breaking" an iPhone? Same concept. Essentially you are altering the base software of the device to get around certain built-in limitations. Doing this voids the warranty and can make downloading updates difficult. It's not an option I'd suggest unless you're a very tech-savvy person with an understanding of Linux.
