Hulu has just intentionally blocked live tv from working in Firefox.

As of today Hulu made it so you cannot stream live TV on Firefox.

I called tech support and they gave me the typical low level tech support help.

- clear your history

-clear your cache

- restart and wait 60 sec.

all that and nothing.

The site worked on MS edge an i noticed you cannot fast forward through commercials anymore.

Pretty sure they intentionally blocked Firefox from live stream because you could FF through ads.

Doesn't work here either. Worked just fine until the newest update 129.0. Now I can only watch live TV on Hulu via Chrome or Edge. PITA.

I have never been able to FF through ads.

I saw a reddit post which said to go into "about:config"

then search - media.eme.mfcdm.origin-filter.enabled

and make it 0

worked for me

OOO thank you!!

I've got problem with canal plus online - this fix works!!

Thank you, Thunder!  Your fix worked perfectly!

Open your config by typing about:config in the search bar.

Accept the risk

In the search bar add media.eme.mfcdm.origin-filter.enabled with a value of 0.

Thanks so much!!

FYI. FF update just set that media.eme.mfcdm.origin-filter.enabled value to zero as well.
