Videos and movies blocked

Recently I started seeing messages on videos and movies on Sharetv, stating that videos are blocked from viewers outside the US. I am in Florida. I was advised to contact Hulu about this, which I did. They checked out my IP address, etc., but couldn't find any reason for the message appearing on my computer. Since this message doesn't appear on Hulu's site, they advised me that the problem has to be with Sharetv. I would appreciate it if someone could find out why Sharetv is blocking me like this, because I would like to continue participating on this site. Thanks.

maybe it's a problem with the player they give us. try this url and tell me if the video loads or if you get an error message:

I tried that url and they asked for my IP address and never told me if that was the problem. Actually, I don't get this message on Hulu.com and I can watch any video or movie on there. It only happens here on sharetv. Hulu told me there is nothing they can do about it because they have nothing to do with Sharetv. I would appreciate any help you can give me on this. Thanks.

Oh, I forgot to mention that I used to use Sharetv in Atlanta, but for the past few months I have been in Florida and unable to get online. The messages didn't start until after I was able to get online in Florida. Don't know if that's important, but I thought I'd mention it. Thanks again.

Oh, wait, now it seems to be okay. That's very weird. Hopefully it will be okay from now on. Thanks anyway.
