This plugin simplifies the effort involved in embedding videos for TV shows and movies from Hulu.com into your wordpress blog.
Instructions
To use the plugin, copy it to your wp-content/plugins directory and activate in the wordpress admin.
To embed a video, simply go to http://www.hulu.com/ and select the TV show or Movie that you want to embed and select the “Embed” icon next to the video. In the embedding code there is a URL that looks simliar to the following:
http://www.hulu.com/embed/HoHzWbOm9DB0lMa8oT_AYg
To embed this URL simply enter a tag using the following format:
[hulu:url width height]
where width and height are optional. So the URL above would be:
[hulu:http://www.hulu.com/embed/HoHzWbOm9DB0lMa8oT_AYg]
The width and height defaults to 510×295.

Hi.
that would be nice.
I think most important issue that embeding hulu episodes don’t
have fullscreen mode so if you can imlement this option to the plugin
probably popup fullscreen
Cheers..
Although i’m not sure this is possible, i’ll take a look at it and see what can be done.
I’ll post an update if and when i’m able to work a solution.
I think it’s set to do height width instead of width height as you describe. I could be wrong. It doesn’t actually scale, though, it just crops. I can do that by editing the embed code, too.
Very nice work, it always throws me off how to embed videos, and I figured out YouTube, but I could never get hulu to work. Thanks.
I’ve rewritten your script using a more advanced regular expression and the PHP preg_replace_callback function, and it now outputs XHTML 1.0 Strict compliant tags and allows for fullscreening the video. If you send me an email at the address provided in this comment I’ll send you the changes as a text file.
