yt-dlp not working with Kick? Here is the fix

Kick sits behind Cloudflare bot protection. yt-dlp requests get challenged and fail with HTTP 403, 'Unable to extract' or an infinite JavaScript challenge.

Fix 2: pass browser cookies

yt-dlp --cookies-from-browser chrome https://kick.com/CHANNEL

Fix 3: use the Kick API stream URL with ffmpeg

Fetch https://kick.com/api/v2/channels/CHANNEL in a real browser, copy playback_url and feed it to ffmpeg -i URL -c copy out.mp4. Fragile, but works.

Fix 4: stop fighting Cloudflare

recordcloud.bot records Kick server-side with protection-aware fetching, detects lives automatically and hands you an MP4. No cookies, no updates.

常见问题解答

Does Streamlink work with Kick?

Streamlink has a Kick plugin that works intermittently for the same Cloudflare reasons.

Is recordcloud.bot affected by Kick's Cloudflare protection?

We route Kick checks through protection-aware fetching, so detection keeps working when scripts fail.
