Do you support hi resolution viewing options in hulu . if so how to enable it , we are only able to view STD def not 480i

At the moment, the beta doesn't support the HD clips from Hulu. We are looking to add this in the future. It will require high-end PC's (in order to handle real-time transcoding of the HD content), and a faster-than-G wireless network setup (to handle streaming the HD content from the Internet as well as pushing the transcoded content over the home network).

I think he meant the hi-res stuff not the 720 HD.

Hulu has the default resolution of 360p, but then has the option to view at "hi-res" 480p.

Ah yes, sorry about that. We don't support hi-res from Hulu at the moment.

Is that an option that will be including in a near future release? It would be outstanding to be able to view the higher quality feeds.

The 480p support in Hulu, as well as HD support (which will require a higher-end PC), will be in an upcoming release.

We're hoping to push another beta release in just a few days, that along with a ton of bug fixes, should hopefully include the higher res Hulu clips.

How about the high quality youtube? (if available in the feed)

We're already taking the higher quality YouTube feeds. Are you seeing otherwise?

I was not sure. If you say you are, I am sure it is fine. Thanks

Any update on this functionality? Your post was from 09/02 and it's 09/27. Is a new beta release available that supports Hulu Hi-Res? I downloaded the beta today, looks like version 2.58.3190.41955.
