Can't Add Hulu Live to sources

I'm using Windows 10 Pro. I'm not sure how to locate the latest DVR server pre-release version. I found links to older versions. Is there a path to find it in the menu system?

We’re aware of the issue and are looking into it.

@maddox this may have to do with the disney integration with Hulu. I had an issue where I had to create a new password to login to the hulu app (for ADBTuner setup). As soon as I did that I updated my password for TVE in Channels and did a rescan. Now I get the same thing:

That’s what we think too.

This may fix the Hulu login issue.

Looks good. My attempt to add Hulu has succeeded using 2024.05.16.2241.

Fast work! Thanks.

@eric No go for me... I get the 2fa email with the OTP but channels never prompts me to enter it. Then a few seconds after I get 1 OTP email I get 4 more. Ive tried this on my channels docker container as well as my stand alone channels server.

Also the multiple 2fa emails causes my account to become locked and I keep having to reset my password. So I login to hulu.com and make sure my new password works. Update channels source with new password. Then I scan and get 5 OTP emails in my inbox. Channels logs show incorrect password. Then I try to log out and back into hulu.com and I get a password error

@slampman Please provide the ID from your diagnostics submission.

@eric here you go eac017df-cf39-4b8c-b626-8d8bcfc506b2

It does not appear there's anything we can do about this — it's just something that Hulu is doing.

Are you re-adding the source or just updating the password? I had a similar issue that resolved itself after i removed and completely re-added Hulu.

Though, to be fair about a week later they sent another 2FA email when I tried to tune to a channel.

Their system has gotten to be quite obnoxious even for non-channels users.

@Dxcv ill give that a try.

@eric the strange thing is that channels doesnt bother asking me for the 2fa code like it usually does

@eric i tried deleting and re-adding the tve source and i get this graphic. Channels doesnt give me an opportunity to enter the 2fa code

I suggest before nuking it. After you create a new password at Hulu update the password in channels twice before rescanning a channel.

Edit. Too late now

Yeah i tried updating it 3 times before and no go. Would it be better for me to install a channels server on a desktop os like ubuntu desktop? Then i could try authenticate to hulu through the chrome browser without the headless chrome issues?

Without diagnostics right after a 2fa code, I don't have the info I need to potentially improve this.

3 times with the same new password? I have a theory that for some reason channels doesn’t always take the password change when update it. So then it tries to use the old pw. I’ve had good luck when I update the new password twice back to back in a row in channels drop down. If you use an old pw Hulu always spits a code.

It helps to verify the machine will authenticate using the pw but I’m not sure if it will help now that you nuked it. Worth a try I guess.

I just repro'd and submitted right after
e7b30cd9-91d1-4831-98d5-cb455a2697a1

in the past did channels ever provide a place to enter the code when rescanning a single channel? I have never seen a place to enter a code after a single channel scan and I have never started new since they implemented being able to enter one. I assumed it was just for starting from scratch
