Download Hulu TV Shows With Stream Transport

Hulu is without doubt one of the most popular websites to view tv shows online in the United States. It provides free access to popular tv shows such as Lost, Family Guy, The Office and dozens of other tv series and shows. But access to Hulu is limited to viewers from the United States and even those can only view the tv shows online and not offline. To make matters worse Hulu is using encryption to protect the tv streams so that standard downloaders like Orbit Downloader do not function at all.

Stream Transport is a new software program for the Windows operating system that can download tv shows from Hulu – and other online video services such as Youtube, Veoh or Dailymotion,

Stream Transport includes a basic web browser (most likely using the Internet Explorer engine) that can be used to open video portals like Hulu in its interface. It will automatically recognize a tv show stream when one is opened and played in the web browser. The streams that are discovered are displayed at the bottom of the interface.

All it takes to download one is to select a tv show from the listing and to click on the Download button afterwards. Each tv show that is found will be listed with its title, duration and video height and width to make the identification easier.

  • Widely support for overwhelming online videos – The app is able to browse and download video clips from video hosting websites of HTTP, RTMP, RTMPT, RTMPE, RTMPTE protocol, and these cover overwhelming majority of websites such as Hulu, Veoh, Boxee, Joost, YouTube, Yahoo Video, CBS, etc.
  • Capture URL automatically – The URL of any video clip that is playing will be auto-captured and listed out for your convenience, and you can download it with one click or just ignore it. There is no bother to add URL manually.
  • Enrich your A/V collection – This FLV Downloader is capable of downloading almost any video and audio file you can play online so that you can turn numerous online video and audio into your own collection. The videos will be saved as FLV or MP4 format in your media library and a powerful player is inlaid for you to play them back freely.
  • Considerate task manager and view log – The task manager lists detailed information of files such as name, size, progress, location etc and allows you to play, stop, delete and convert (full version) the FLV files downloaded. Auto shutdown is available as well. The view log makes it easier to manage your tasks.

    Stream transport is so easy to use, but I had to download a file converter for the flv to mp4 conversion. How can I get the ‘full’ version of Stream Transport which does the converison automatically? Great program, I like that it is not bloated, just a working small space program.
