h265 still broken on Hulu with version 6.2.0.0

MrKrawk

If you want to try Idiocracy, I'm only seeing that in 264. Just trying to duplicate this across installs. I read on another forum that Fox/FX items were now using different encryption, but I don't know how accurate that is. I'm still seeing differences between what people can get and in what format.

Looks like 1080p, but only h264. That is actually the first h264 movie I have seen in searching.

Alright then. I've seen a couple of others, but don't remember what they were. They weren't things I wanted, I was just testing the waters.

I got the standard response when I submitted an actual ticket, which is to wait for the next version. Not being disrespectful here, but somewhere about 10 versions ago or so the dev team at SF broke h265, so an actual fix should not be hard to come up with, so it would be so nice to see them unbreak it. When they added the features to 'improve analyzing in various modules.' If you recall, they made a new version after breaking it claiming to 'fix' the issue, but people were still unable to access anything in 4K that they used to be able to, then they made another 'fix' that restored that for some content. And here we are still, 2/3 of the way fixed. Different topic, but since that release they completely broke individual analysis on Prime too.

1080p works fine for me but no 2160p. 1080 will only work if it is in h264 and you choose h265 from the downloader then you can get 1080 h265

MrKrawk

Some of the shows that I should get h265 but do not, say a 25 minute episode of a show comes up in the analyze screen as 1.6 Gb, but it downloads maybe 550 Mb. What exactly did it analyze to think it was 1.6 Gb? Obviously that is why it is not offering h265, it looking at the wrong stream.

Hi,

Sorry for this to trouble to you.

Firstly, I can confirm that H264/H265 1080p and 4K videos can be downloaded with Hulu Basic plan. (Subscript Hulu directly from hulu.com)

But, I'm not sure that why the H265 videos can not be downloaded with the Disney+ Hulu Bundle Trio Premium subsciption. H264 video can be downloaded only.

The stream mpd file can not be downloaded.

"message": "DMS-404-001: Unable to build DASH switching sets, invalid presentation: missing video switching sets"
}

Anyway, I will ask the dev to check it.

@remmy90 @travelar Please also tell me your Hulu subscription details, thanks!

Hulu no ads + live tv Disney bundle H265 1080 can be downloaded but only when choosing it from the analysis window of h264 but 2160 can not at all it lets you choose it then downloads 1080 when on h265 if you set Hulu at h265 in settings it docent work at all

travelar

Disney Bundle Trio Premium

Thanks for looking into this.

travelar

@Wilson.Wang I created a standalone Hulu trial account. As you mentioned, with that account, everything that I wanted in both h265 and 4k is available in h265. So there is something off with how the manifest is presented with bundled accounts.

I have a duo bundle as well. So the quick answer is to set up another account, but as basic only?
Thanks for that work around. Although I hope the dev can find what is different and adapt it to work correctly.

Yes, Hulu Basic with Ad plan is enough for downloading 1080p and 4K videos.

If it helps, I looked at the Stremfab Updates page, version 6193 worked correctly with the Hulu/Disney+ duo plan. 6194 broke it, your team recognized and fixed it for some people in 6196, but the rest of us remain broken even with 6202. 6194 said "Some improvements for the display of the analysis process" and this is where it broke things.
Getting a second Hulu account to get around this would not be the first choice. So getting the devs to look at what changed with 6194 might help fix this issue.

Thanks for the information, but h265 also can not be downloaded in the old version 6189 or 6193.

We will find the way that how to get the H265 stream files with the bundle subscription account.

The movies Carved (2024) and Mr. Crockett will offer an h265 stream, but it is the lowest bitrate 1080p h265 stream.

remmy90

I would imagine there are some knowledgeable people writing the software... care to give them a nudge? Send them a "how to" guide?

MrKrawk

@Wilson.Wang do we see any possible progress in getting the bundle pack manifests working?
Apparently a user on this thread posted that they can download titles manually, it is a rather 'simple' fix for someone that knows about this sort of thing.

travelar

Bump.

MrKrawk

Bump.
travelar

Agreed.
As remmy90 above says, no issues pulling them manually, so it's not very complicated to someone that does this sort of thing daily.
