You can re-enter your same password in Update Password to make sure it's the one you want to use.

Right now I can't get Hulu added as a source. Because the password can be changed, it's probably not a good idea to remove a source that will still be used.
I can sign on to all the TVE sources with my Hulu username and password. It's just Hulu from the DVR that is failing with the wrong password error.
Don't know if it will help anyone else, but I was able to use settings/sources/hulu live/update password and I have my Hulu channels back on Channels DVR again.
This is another reason that Hulu troubleshooting should not include source deletion. Because once Hulu is removed, it seems to be impossible to add it again.
I was unable to add Hulu Live TV as a source running on the Synology native application. I finally ditched the live TV part of Hulu and switched to YouTubeTV which also failed to add. In desperation I switched to running the ChannelsDVR Docker application. YTTV was added as a source on my first try!
Since I still had a Hulu login, I tried adding Hulu. I got a prompt to enter the code that Hulu had just emailed to me. I entered the code in the Channels diaglog and it proceeded adding Hulu until it informed me that my Hulu account was eligible for TVE. If I ever want to back to Hulu, I have some confidence it will work.
Some time ago I contacted CDVR support and asked about switching from Synology native to Docker. I was told both were the same binary. Perhaps that was true then, but it doesn't seem to be true now. If you are having trouble adding Hulu why running on a Synology, you may want to try the Docker app. YouTubeTV TVE failing: This browser or app may not be secure - #62 by dfrap
I have another Hulu TVE block. Been trying a few times, always get this:
The password is correct, I logged in on a browser on my desktop, logged out, and logged in again. Zero issues.
The Channels log says:

Old chrome, check troubleshooting tab
Clicked the troubleshooting tab, it flagged old chrome. Clicked update, it machined a bit, but flag didn't clear. I restarted 'for clean', and when it came back up troubleshooting was all green.
I tried logging in again and got same error, same version of chrome shows in logs. I'm including ALL the logs from startup since xxxx looks unusual:

eh, doesn't want to update. Stuck behind 'oldstable' from what I can see, I'm not a guru on linux but like to think I could play one on TV. I'll research more...
Thanks, all!

Had Hulu for years. Had issue that required dropping source. Now it will not authorize.
Double checked password, reset password, but nothing works.
Error claims password is wrong.
Running on Qnap NAS, all troubleshooting checks are green, chrome up to date.
Any other suggestions?

If your Qnap supports Docker, I suggest trying CDVR on Docker.
Thanks. I also have a Synology. I setup Docker there and tested Hulu and was able to setup source. So I will move the DVR there.
I was about ready to go the Docker route. Could not get YTTV to authorize. Canceled YTTV.
Reactivated my HULU account and was unable to get it to authorize over the last several days.
I gave it one last try this morning and it worked, it sent authorization code and provided entry point in channels to enter it. All good for now.

I'm dropping YTTV and moving over to Fubo TV.
i'm alaready preparing my sources as TVE becomes less of an ooption.
I would rather use different docker solutions and go with other methods.
I am also using Synology with Docker and Hulu...but mine is not working

Hi All,
I'm wondering if anyone has current experience with Hulu Live and TVE integration? I am running Channels DVR on Synology NAS. I also am wondering if anyone is pulling Hulu non-TVE stations into Channels DVR by another means, ADBTuner, perhaps?
Hey John,
I'm thinking of switching to Hulu. I see that you got it working with Channels DVR this past December. I'm wondering if it is still working well. Are you using it with TVE, or some other way to get the service into your Channels DVR server?
