I am having trouble getting any video's linked from Hulu to play. I've tried the newest episode of FMA Brotherhood, as well as the new One Piece. It keeps telling me "The requested video cannot be displayed in your region". I live in NY so I should not be blocked from viewing video content. This is the first time I have tried to watch anything besides ANNtv and those videos have always worked correctly.

I have tried viewing the videos in Google Chrome 3.0.195.33, Firefox 3.0.15 and most current Internet Explorer and have the same issue with all 3 browsers. It only affects videos from Hulu. Joost, Crunchyroll and Funimation all play videos without as hiccup. Could this just be a Hulu issue? I have had issues on and off all night viewing content from their actual website.

That sounds like something you might want to contact Hulu's technical support about. Depending on what area of New York you live in, your IP address could be getting mistakenly mixed up in a range that also covers part of Canada, or something along those lines.

I live in Maryland and got the same problem a couple days ago with a Hulu video. However, when I tried the video actually on Hulu.com instead of through ANN, it worked fine. So if it isn't working for you on ANN, I would try just going to Hulu.com and see if it works for you there.

Thank you for the reply's. The videos do the same thing at Hula when I try to view. I will contact Hulu and see what they can do for me.
