Whats steps have you taken? Have you tried uninstalling reinstalling Hulu Plus app? If you want to watch Hulu through browser you will have to tweak a few things before you can watch via web browser. I don't have any issues playing Hulu through the app and browser.

Provide some more details, see if I can help:
1. Is Hulu plus ever work on your device?
2. When it's not working anymore? after the latest JB upgrade?
3. Do you have flash installed?
4. When it's not working, what is the error message?

First, are you unlocked? If so, as I understand things, part of the unlocking is the deletion of DRM keys, which means Hulu doesn't work. If you are not unlocked, have you tried to side load the program? Delete the data and cache?

i'm locked and rooted, Hulu plus is working fine for me.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using xda premium
I'm locked, but rooted. Hulu Plus works fine. I'm also on JB (android 4.1.1). I've used it since 4.0.1.
I'm unclear on your "not this specific tablet" statement, but you state you're on JB. It's like you're implying it worked before. I assume it wasn't working before. Usually, if a app isn't compatible, it work show up in Google Play, and on the Google Play through the web will state it's not compatible; although, some apps show up in Google Play app, but will state not compatible.
I don't know where the thread is, but there is a hacked Hulu Plus app that is suppose to work on any android device. Search for it, and side load it.
As for Hulu through the web browser, it requires a hacked Flash Player that fools Hulu to think you're on a PC. The reason it doesn't work with web browser is because Hulu doesn't all the free Hulu on anything except a PC. If your'e desperate, there's a thread someone on it too. On a side note, I have no idea if they ever hacked an updated version of flash player for it. If not, that version is around eighteen months old, so there is probably security holes in it that are known by now.
Personally, I think you need to uninstall and redownload and install again. There is no reason it should worked. I just used it two days ago and was fine. The only thing I can think of, you're not using a north american release of the Infinity (TF700T) and somehow it's triggering the issue.

This may be somewhat common knowledge, but I thought I'd share since I don't see any threads about Hulu in here.
It seems Hulu has decided having root is evil and therefor they will not allow you to stream to a device which is rooted. I don't get why these companies do this. I tried temp unroot with rootkeeper but it still didn't want to work, though it could be the flag gets set for the device on your account and doesn't flip back without some further intervention on Hulu's end.
Thank you for your email, and I'm sorry for the trouble with Hulu Plus on your Asus Transformer Infinity. I'm afraid the error message you're receiving indicates that our system flagged your Infinity as a "rooted" device. Basically, "rooted" means that the software on the device has been altered in some way. Some users may do this to enable particular apps on their devices or to customize the Android OS, but unfortunately, we cannot support these modified-OS devices. I realize this is frustrating and I apologize.
If you don't believe your device is rooted, just let me know and we can investigate other causes of this error message. To aid my troubleshooting, is there anything installed on the device or any unusual settings that might be triggering this "rooted" flag? There are some apps that are known to cause this trouble (Hide It Pro is one of these apps).
Again, my apologies for all the trouble here. I hope we can reach a solution. Let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with, or if you have further questions.

If you are unlocked hulu will not work because Asus deletes the drm keys off the tablet upon unlocking. Meaning hulu and some other programs won't work that rely on that.
If you are not unlocked, make sure if you have ad away installed that you disable it before opening the app it will not work until you do this. Hulu works just fine for me rooted.

ahhh so it's the unlocking they are balking at, not necessarily just being rooted.
thanks for the info, that clears up the why of it. damn i hate drm.
Is this something that could eventually be worked around? I use hulu plus a lot and I'm getting this tablet soon. I wonder of its even worth unlocking for me

I suggest forgoing the Hulu Plus app and modifying your flash so you can watch Hulu Plus straight from the stock browser or Dolphin. The attached script requires root and busybox, but will modify your libflashplayer.so so that it's unblocked by Hulu.com. This also circumvents the HDMI-out limitation found in the current app.

Hmm. I may have to try that when I get my tf700 next Wednesday. Thanks.

Currently I think unlocking the TF700 is not ready due to the fact that we don't gain that much by doing so (more headache by doing so). I would wait after the release of Jelly Been.
Is updating with the ota safe then? I hear it fixes some issues

Yes, the .26 OTA is safe and worth applying

Safe? To my knowledge it was never unsafe. .26 definitely does perform better than previous versions, though it's less than what I'd expect from a $500+ tablet.

I meant, can you still unlock bootloader and root after doing the update. I know with my EVO LTE, if I take the ota, I lose root.

I was reading that there is a modded version of Hulu Plus that works on an unlocked prime. I guess the Landscape version at the link below works quite well.. Can anyone test this on the infinity? I have yet to unlock. I would rather not lose the hulu app.

I have it on my unlocked infinity, It works fine in terms of showing tv shows and movies, but the interface is a little annoying and old school. Mostly you just have to get used to the search feature. It is not as easy to navigate as the new app, but if you know what you are looking for it's pretty good.

Who uses hulu anyways? Not being able to watch their free content with their app on a droid device is a dealbreaker for me. I reactivate subscription services only when I have time off from school.

Next to the pre-installed apps only a few games:
Ant Smasher, Angry Birds Space, Animal Match, Four in a line Free, Kids Zoodles and Where's my Water.
I have had all of the games installed on my HTC Sensation for months without any issues, weird that this is happening on this tablet!
I dont have any of those apps and still have these weird problems. It may only be on stock browser but I'm not too sure. It's very weird and strange. Might try contacting Asus about it

the best way to stop these are rott it then use ad blocker or use firefox and use the adblocker add on , the first works perfect, its what i do and ive not had this problem and the adblocker on my desktop firefox works perfect so that should too
Never had this on Opera and Adaway
I used Chrome, stock browser and Firefox. ICS and JB, never had this issue.

Same here.
I mostly use Chrome, but I also use Opera and Firefox. Never seen a porn site pop up while browsing. I guess I could see that happening if you're just hitting random links from Google searches, but i suspect that would be the case with any browser.

Sounds like that famous reply from the Apple Genius when the wife asked if porn links on her husband's computer could have come from a virus - "Of course they could" - man loyalty wins every time.
This is a terrible issue. When i want random porn i have to search for it, which means its not random anymore. What is random porn anyway? Is it like midget porn?
If not, I'm not interested.

they are (more or less justifiably) paranoid, with a rooted and modified tablet in theory you can strip their drm and reroute them while on an unrooted system its a lot harder
Hello,
I am using stock browser which works exceptionally well when javascript is disabled. However, I loose some functionality to any website with embedded javascripts. On my TF700 I'm finding that it is the only thing that's crashing my browsers and even at times locking/rebooting my system.
As the title suggests, anyone here running Browser2Ram with javascript enabled? Does it still run smooth, no lag or lock ups? Any other suggestions for a javascript fix? I'm holding off from rooting my device to see if there are any other solutions posted.
Thx in advance.

in desktop mode with browser2ram, both sites are working fine. On espn, some videos are not working due to hulu content, for unlocked device, hulu won't work, but you are not so it should be fine.

No need to "side load" flash. Just download the apk found in my post here Then install it. Make sure "Unknown sources" is checked unser security settings. Then all you need to do is use a flash enabled web browser. My favorite is xScope pro. But angel, mozilla, and i think boat browser support it.
