I understand there is no support for alpha or source-only distros. This is merely asking users out there if they have the same issue.

I've added Hulu as a internet video source.
On hulu's site with IE, I've set my settings to prefer the higher-def stream if available.
I built boxee myself with VC2008.

If I then watch a hulu show with this setting enabled, bxflplayer.exe crashes, boxee will continue to spin in the background forever until killed.

If I change the hulu preference using a web browser back to normal, then Hulu videos work again.

This is repeatable on two different machines. (Vista & XP)

I am getting this on all Hulu streams, not with comedy central and others though.

I'm having the same problem after I click on a hulu movie. It worked for a while, but later it didn't. At least I'm not the only one. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

The only difference is that I haven't messed with preferences.
