My download speed is supposed to be 14 mpbs down and 3 up, (although it is usually closer to 11-12 down and 2 up). Even though that is way over the suggested speed, Hulu still stutters for me at times. This is probably because my actual speed varies based on how busy my provider is at the time. On their site, they suggest pausing the shows and letting them load if you are experiencing stuttering. That usually does the trick for me.

Thanks Bill. I sent an email to Hulu tech support to see if they have any suggestions. Ray Fowlers last blog post..Another Garfield Monday - October

@Ray Fowler - Not sure Ray, I haven't had many problems with the stream quality. Occasionally it might freeze, but that has been a rarity. Bill Reicharts last blog post..Porn Again Christian

Hi Bill, How are finding the quality of the stream from Hulu? I tried it out with the family last night. I hooked the laptop up to our TV, and we watched a TV show. We found the picture kind of jerky throughout. The best I can describe it is like a subtle stop animation with live people. The picture also froze for a couple seconds at a time (maybe 5-6 times during a one hour show). I checked the Hulu site, and they said you should have at least a 1000 kbs connection. We have a cable modem, and I measured the speed at 6000 kbs, but the picture still seemed to stagger. Ray Fowlers last blog post..Quick Takes - 10/4/2008

Bill,
I’m right with you on this. My wife and I get basic cable with our apartment, but we haven’t connected it to our TV because we don’t want that constant distraction. When I lived with my parents who had cable, I loved to channel surf. Now I know exactly what I’m going to watch before I watch it. Also, with Hulu you miss almost all commercials. Which is extremely important to me.
