Hulu Error Code P-Dev302: A Complete Troubleshooting Guide

Published On : September 12, 2022 by: Anjali Latwal/Category(s) : HULU

Your Hulu program or the device’s firmware may become out of date, which can result in the display of the error code P-Dev302 by Hulu. In addition, the anti-tracking option that is turned on in the browser’s settings (this applies solely to the browser version), may potentially be the source of the problem at hand. When the user attempts to visit Hulu (either via the mobile/TV app or through a web browser), he runs into the problem at hand. He sees the following sort of message:

“‘We’re having trouble playing this… Hulu Error Code: P-DEV302”

Here’s how to fix Hulu Error Code: P-DEV302

Before continuing with the steps to fix the Hulu error code P-Dev302, be sure that connecting the device to an Ethernet network (if it is currently connected to Wi-Fi) has not already resolved the problem. Also, it will be a good idea to turn off the device (such as a TV), networking equipment (such as a router or modem), unplug the power cords, wait one minute, and then turn on the devices again to see if the problem was the result of a temporary glitch. This can be done to determine whether the issue was caused by a temporary glitch.

Solution 1: Remove all of the devices

The first solution is to delete all of your devices from your Hulu account and then add them back in. There was a momentary breakdown in contact between your device and the Hulu server, which may have resulted in the Hulu error code P-Dev302 being shown. In this particular scenario, deleting all of the devices associated with your Hulu account and then re-adding the problematic device to the account may be all that is required to rectify the situation. However, before moving on, double-check that the credentials required to access Hulu are still readily available.

• Launch the Hulu app, and after it’s up and running, go to the user profile tab.
• Now, in order to log out of your Hulu account, hit the Logout button, and then confirm your selection.
• The next step is to restart your device, after which you should open a web browser.
• Now all you need to do is go to the Hulu website and sign in using the credentials you have.
• Then, towards the top right of the window, click on your profile name, and pick Account from the drop-down menu that appears (or Manage Account).
• Now, in the Overview window, choose Manage Devices (which is located near the Add Your Devices button), and delete all of the associated devices by clicking on the Remove button that is located in front of each device.
• After you have disconnected all of the devices, launch the Hulu program and log in with your credentials to see whether or not the P-Dev302 problem has been resolved.

Solution 2: Make sure that both the Hulu application and the device’s firmware are up to date

If the Hulu program or the firmware of your device is out of date, Hulu may display the error code P-Dev302 instead of working properly. Keeping the Hulu program and the firmware of your device (such as the Apple TV) up to date is your best bet for resolving this particular issue. As an example, we will walk you through the steps for downloading and installing the Hulu app on both an Apple TV and an Android device (you are free to follow the instructions according to the requirements of your device and app).

Here’s how you can update your Hulu app

• Launch the Google Play Store (https://play.google.com), and then choose Search from the menu.
• Next, type Hulu, and when the results appear, choose Hulu from the list.
• After that, choose the Update button (if an update is available). And after it has been updated, examine it to see whether it still has the P-Dev302 problem.
• Make sure the Apple TV’s firmware is up to date.
• Launch the Settings app on your Apple TV, and then choose the General option from the menu.
• Now open Update Software and check to see if there is new firmware available for your device.
• If that is the case, then you should download and run the update.
• After that, give the TV a fresh start, and then check to see whether the Hulu application is operating normally.

Solution 3: Reset Your Device to Factory Defaults

If the firmware of your device (for example, your Vizio TV) is damaged, you could see the Hulu error number P-Dev302 when you try to use the service. In this particular situation, resetting your TV to its factory settings can be the best option for fixing the issue. For the sake of clarity, we will walk you through the steps for setting up a Vizio TV. And after that, you may follow the instructions for your own device.

• Click the System option after pressing the Menu button on the Vizio remote. However, if the option to use the remote is not available, then use the buttons on the TV itself.
• Now enter the Reset & Admin option on your television, and choose the option to Reset TV to Factory Settings.
• After the procedure of doing factory reset is finished, you should proceed to set up the TV. And examine whether or not the Hulu app is operating properly.
• In the event that the problem continues to exist, a temporary remedy would be to cast from your phone. This you could employ till the permanent resolution of the issue.

Solution 4: Disabling the anti-tracking settings in the browser’s options is the next possible solution (Browser Version Only)

It is possible that you may see the P-Dev302 problem if the anti-tracking option that is included in the settings of your browser is turned on. This is because the anti-tracking feature can impede Hulu’s ability to comply with the DRM standards. In this particular instance, turning off the anti-tracking feature in the browser’s settings could be the best solution to the issue. In order to make this clearer, let’s talk about the procedure for the Chrome browser.

• Launch the Settings menu for the Chrome browser. And then go to the Privacy & Security option in the left-hand navigation bar.
• Then, in the right pane, click the section labeled “Cookies and Other Site Data.” And make sure that the option labeled “Send a “Do Not Track” Request with Your Browsing Traffic” is toggled “off”.
• Check to see whether the problem with Hulu still exists after you have just relaunched the Chrome browser.
• Whether that doesn’t work, you should see if starting the browser in the InPrivate/Incognito Mode fixes the problem. Also, ensure that no browser extensions are permitted to run while the browser is in incognito mode.
• If it does not cure the problem, you could try switching to a different web browser. You can use Edge or Firefox, to see if that helps fix the Hulu error code P-Dev302.
