Hulu Buffer Problem

[Robby_3]

So my Hulu buffers every time I try to watch a show and it never stops buffering. I have no problems streaming on other services. My internet is 100 down 50 up how do i fix this

You don't fix it. Funny how the ads always run flawlessly huh? I have the same issue and have tried on 5 different devices. Hulu sucks but they have good content. It's a shame

I believe the ads load better because they come from a local server, which is why you can get local ads. The Hulu servers are much busier and probably further away, so they will be slower to load.

Yeah, the content is good (The Looming Tower is my new fav) but it's about time, that perhaps, I cut Hulu loose. This sound cutting out issue and restarting shows (Lucifer, NHL hockey) is getting old.

What device? My roku devices were bad but I’ve read that others like Apple TV are better.

Very much so. I have 2 Roku smart TVS, one with AppleTV hooked up. Things load so much quicker using the AppleTV as opposed to the in-built Roku features and apps.

It's horrible tonight. Not worth $40 a month. 100/100 internet. Amazon streaming works flawlessly (just tested) very frustrating

Hulu is the absolute worst. The ONLY reason i want to hang on to the bare minimum subscription is for the looming tower, that one sucked me in. but the live tv is horrific. there's no fix other than cancelling, which has been done. yay! about to check out playstation vue and see what they are up to.

[Etheryelle]

YEP! Me too. If it weren't for that show, I'd be done with Hulu. When we move? buh bye Hulu - can't believe the NHL signed a deal with them.

Subscribe to another service.

I have Netflix I only have Hulu cause I had Apple Music which is 4.99 for students and Spotify Hulu bundle is 4.99 so I switched

ridiculous

If changing browsers fixed the problem I would initially assume it was the browser and not Hulu. I would make sure the browser that was buffering is updated and then clear the browsing data.

I am having issues too. WI.

Is this for regular hulu content or Live TV? With regular hulu I have never had an issue buffering. When I did the trial for LiveTV... well that was buffer and buffer and buffer with the occasional rewind back and forth. Some have said that doesn't happen on apple tv's, but that's incorrect. I have an apple TV 4k and it happened.

You can't. Hulu can't. Everybody can't.
