This is the best news I've heard all week!

Can't wait to see Disney-owned shows start to pop up on Hulu.

Now all HULU has to do is fix their danged media player so that I can view my videos at full screen 480p! Have you tried to watch the 480p at full screen? It gives me motion sickness. The work around is to change your flash player to low quality.

What a bummer....

When you try watching it at high-quality full-screen, does it seem choppy sometimes?

If so...it may be your video card.
I've tried doing that on my Macbook, with the same choppy result, but it works perfectly on my upgraded PC, as well as on my college lab computers, which have even bigger monitors.

Weird... I've never had that problem. What OS/browser/Flash version are you on?

I don't know what you're using, but I do that exact thing, and the quality is superb and the picture is nice and smooth. I'm using Firefox 3 and I have Intel graphics, so, nothing amazing.

@jlopezcnet -- Might be a Flash plug-in problem on Mac. I dual-boot, and I tried it in OS X and 480p sucks as you say (on the same hardware). I asked another Mac friend who uses Hulu a lot and he has the same thing going on and gave up on 480p. My company does a ton of Flash development, and all Flash plugins are not the created equal as many nub Flash devs and Adobe would lead you to believe. We cross-browser/cross platform test all of our work and it's proved worth the effort many, many times.

I don't have any problems on HULU.. But Youtube's TV shows are in low quality. They look as bad as their pirate clips.
