Hulu and location

chpbrownlee

Hi,

I'm having the same issue stated above. I've tried everything, including enabling the setting in

chrome://flags/#enable-winrt-geolocation-implementation

I'm not sure what else to do. It's quite frustrating that I have to use another browser just for Hulu. Any help would be appreciated.

For reference:

Vivaldi 3.5.2115.81 (Stable channel) (x86_64)
OS macOS Big Sur Version 11.1 (Build 20C69)
JavaScript V8 8.7.220.29
Flash (Disabled)
No blocking for Hulu and location allowed.

I'm perpetually stuck at this screen in Hulu.

Oh, thank you! I'm dumb. Defining a custom location override in the dev tools worked for me! Thanks so much!

@chpbrownlee How did you define custom location override? I'm having the same problem

@ejwhite2599 OP said problem solved with custom location override in Dev Tools.
Try Hit F12 to open Dev Tools, Hit CTRL + SHIFT + P search > Show Sensors and you can change location on Sensors Tab.

@ejwhite2599 Open Dev Tools Menu Bar → Tools → Developper Tools, then cmd+shift+P, scroll down to find Show Sensors.

Then what, after finding Sensors? Does someone have complete, explicit guidance? Thanks.

What worked for me was the following steps:

Use google maps to find the GPS coordinates of your current address. In my case, it was my home.
Navigate to https://www.hulu.com
In the tab for https://www.hulu.com, follow the instructions in this thread to opened the sensors tab within the developer pane and clicked the manage button
Create a new row in the table, called "Home", enter your GPS coordinates and timezone.
After entering the new row, click the "x" icon in the upper right hand corner of the developer pane. This will take you back to the sensors tab.
Select "Home" next to the Manage button and refresh the page and hulu should work.
