Hulu Error Code P-DEV340
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Many users have reported Hulu Error Code P-DEV340 while trying to stream their content. You can encounter this issue on a browser, the Hulu app on Android & iOS, and even on Smart TVs.

We went through it all and here’s what we have found out.

What Is P-DEV340 On Hulu? Why Am I Getting A Hulu Error Code P-DEV340?

P-DEV340 is a playback issue. This Hulu error shows up if you have buffering issues, or issues related to media while it is being rendered on your device.

Few users encountered this issue while they were skipping or fast-forwarding media. Here are the root causes for this PDEV340.

Connection Issue

Hulu has a minimum bandwidth requirement to stream content on devices. If the criteria are not met, there are chances of buffering issues while streaming. Even Hulu library items will take time to load.

Things can get downright frustrating when you try to skip to a specific part of the media and it either buffers for a long time or throws the P-DEV340 error.

Hulu Cache Issue

Hulu caches much of your account information, like the point where you left watching your recent Hulu shows, movie recommendations based on your watch time, etc. Over time such cached data can take up a lot of memory.

This allocated memory can conflict with the app’s working and throw errors.

You Are Using An Older Version of Hulu

Hulu keeps on adding bug fixes and improvements in their patch fixes. But if you are using an older version of Hulu, these updates won’t be available to you.

How To Fix Hulu Error Code P-DEV340?

As PDEV340 is a playback issue, the fix is going to be pretty straightforward. For your benefit, we have listed the easiest and the most prudent solution first followed by the relatively complicated ones.

Close All Hulu Processes And Services

Terminating all Hulu processes and services will restart the app and close any stale services. Here’s how to do it

On Android

close all hulu processes in android
  • Click on Settings and navigate to the Apps section.
  • Select Hulu and click Force Stop
  • Launch the Hulu app

On iOS

  • Swipe up from the bottom to launch the application switcher.
  • Swipe left and right to get to Hulu, and open the app preview.
  • Close Hulu and then restart the app.

Restart Web Browser

If you use a browser to stream Hulu content, simply closing the browser won’t do the job. You have to terminate all browser threads. To do so –

  • Open Task Manager and go to Processes Tab
  • Sort by App name to see all the Processes in your browser.

  • Select the process and click End Task
  • All instances of your browser will be closed

Check Your Internet Connection

check your internet connection

Even though you have steady internet connectivity you need a minimum internet bandwidth of 3 Mbps to access Hulu’s platform. To stream Live TV, Hulu needs a bandwidth of 8 Mbps and 25 Mbps to stream content in 4K UHD. 

If you don’t have such a connection expect connectivity and loading issues. This might even trigger the Hulu Error Code P-DEV340.

Visit Speedtest and click Go, to check your internet bandwidth.

If your internet bandwidth matches Hulu’s criteria, switch off your Wifi router and then turn it back on. Perform a speed test once the router restarts. If the issue still persists contact your local Internet Service Provider.

Restart Your Device

restart your device

On restarting your device, your phone flushes un-synced data which might solve the issue. If you are using an Android or iOS device, just reboot it and check if the issue persists.
