    Hi guys, thank you very much for trying to helping me, but unfortunately didn't find any way to record or download movies or shows from hulu. I tried Hulu Downloader and also Hulu Grabber as that guy said, but even their names say that they are hulu downloaders, they cannot download hulu. Maybe they are some old versions which cannot stream hulu anymore as hulu's files are protected now, so those seem to record flash video and not rtmp-e.
    However, I even tried that kissyoutube and worked only with youtube, of course, it's not a hulu downloader, but an Youtube Downloader. And the files converted with online converter have a bad quality.
    Anyway, it seems that I must search for a screen recorder which captures video streaming, in case hulu's files are encrypted.
    Thank you anyway...

    They are not there for you to download. Watch them online and be happy to have the free LEGAL entertainment.

    Oh well, join the club. I bet you are not the only one who used to record Hulu shows and can't do anything right now. I also used to record and convert Hulu shows to 3gp with some app, this way I was able to transfer Hulu movies and videos to the phone and watch them while working out at the gym. I don't exactly recall the name of the app, I think it was Hulu Grabber or something like that but it's just not capable anymore to record Hulu shows.It's probably because of that encryption they have on their streams these days as you guys already mentioned.
    I'd love to be able to download Hulu shows again, but I just don't know form where to start or what Hulu Downloader I could try.
    And to be honest I don't want to risk trying all sorts of apps that claim they can do the job because I just don't want to ruin my pc with all kinds of viruses.

    Man, that part with kiss YouTube made me laugh so hard I almost fell off my chair.It might work for Youtube but it will definitely not let you record Hulu shows. First of all, adding all sorts of words like "kiss" or "ok" or others might work to download YouTube videos but these are saved as flv files and you would need a flv player to be able to watch them, as I saw you already mentioned ,plus a converter to be able to transfer YouTube videos you download to other devices like let's say your phone, which btw most definitely do not support flv files.Too complicated anyways, if you ask me.
    Now regarding Hulu shows, this one is in no way similar to YouTube in respect to the format of their video streams. Why, you might ask? Because Hulu chose last year, though I might be wrong on the period, to add some encryption to their shows, i.e. Hulu shows are now in RTMP-e format.
    I used to have some Hulu Downloader app installed but since they encrypted their streams this app seems not to be working anymore, sadly.
    I'm also looking for a way to be able to record Hulu shows again, but haven't come up with one yet.

    Hi, Thank you for your answer, but I really don't want another streaming online movie site, because I like hulu and it's much easier to use than ovguide.com.
    Anyway, I would like to find a way to record movies from hulu and to watch them on my dvd player. If it is possible I would like a solution for both actions, to download hulu movies and to convert videos to dvd, so that it could do an easier work. I tried to record movies with my YouTube Downloader but it seems that it cannot capture the stream.
    So, I'm still open to new ideas.

    I don't use hulu, but www.ovguide.com is a better website if you want to watch T.V. shows or movies. I hope this helps you out, even a little bit. :)
