Want to Watch Hulu From Outside the US WITHOUT a Proxy? Here is how...
 
Quote:

We've featured one or two ways to watch Hulu from outside the US, but one user over at Reddit has discovered another method, no outside proxy server required. All you need is a Firefox add-on and a few blocked ports.

First, download the Modify Headers add-on for Firefox. Once installed, go to Tools > Modify Headers in Firefox and add a new filter by clicking on the drop-down menu and hitting "add". In the first box, type X-Forwarded-For and in the second box, type in the IP adddress of any US web site. Leave the third box blank, and then save and enable the filter.

Next, block TCP and UDP port 1935. To do so on Mac, all you need to do is type the following in a Terminal window:

sudo ipfw add 0 deny tcp from any to any 1935
sudo ipfw add 0 deny udp from any to any 1935
Linux users can install iptables to do it through Terminal as well, with the commands:

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 1935 -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 1935 -j DROP
Windows users should be able to follow these instructions to correctly block the ports.

This method should allow access not just to Hulu, but many other US-only streaming sites. Note that this may disable Flash on other sites, so you'll only want to enable this while you're watching video on one of these sites. We Lifehacker editors are all in the US, however, so we can't verify the efficacy of this method. THus, be sure to let us know what does and does not work for you in the comments, and we'll edit the post accordingly. Also be sure to check out the original post at Reddit and the comments over there, as they have been honing the method quite well.

Seems it happening same thing when i accessing over usa proxy-infinite loading.

I get how to fool them into thinking you have a US IP behind a proxy, but what's port 1935 for?

rowan 07-10-2010 06:25 PM

Ok, 1935 is to stop hulu trying to connect directly, and force everything to happen through the "proxy"

Yeah to force the video to stream through http instead of rtmp.

Anyways, Hulu's restrictions are dumb - I realize they're between a rock and a hardplace negotiating rights, but still they should allow people to view as much as possible from anywhere by default.

They would be sued and out of bussiness very fast.Consider hulu as tv,not as internet web site.

You clearly have ZERO clue as to how broadcasters and licensing in that world works!
