I too tried this plugin tonight in hopes of watching some shows on
hulu.com. I agree this plugin works. When I first tried the site I
could do nothing as I was required to update flash. After inserting
the plugin (I didn't have any other plugin to compare) I was able to
stream movies. At first I tried watching on a G3 iBook (900Mhz/32MB
video) but that simply would not do. Then I tried watching the same
show on this G4 using the same flash plugin. Unfortunately the movies
were jerky but the audio was fine. I also used TenFourFox in both cases.
I checked the Activity monitor on the G4 and it showed that the dual
1.6Ghz processors were topped out and the 1.5GB of RAM was used up,
excepting ~50MB. I have an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro video card which has
256MB of RAM as well. Darn, I am disappointed. I had hoped with all
the upgrades for this G4 that it could handle a movie via the
Internet. It is close but it just can't quite do it.
