I have seen several mentions of this problem (several of those mine) but never any meaningful response. Part way through a Hulu video, the video will stop and a black screen will coming saying that the content is unavailable, suggesting that you restart your browser. Replay the same video and it may or may not play all the way through. Since I assume this is a (by now, anyway) known issue - will there be any solution for it?

We know about the problem. Hulu changed their code and made it harder for third-party apps to integrate with their site. We're testing potential solutions and will release a patch as soon as we can.

A good workaround for this is to install a user agent extension, and set it for Internet Explorer.
