Why 1080p may not be available on your channel

KICK continues to support creators as they grow their communities and build the best possible experience for their viewers.

As you continue streaming, creating engaging content, and growing your audience, your channel may gain access to additional livestream resolution options, including 1080p.

What this means for your channel

Some growing channels may currently have access to the following livestream resolution options:

  • 720p60

  • 480p

  • 360p

  • 160p

  • Audio only

  • Auto

1080p may become available once your channel reaches the required engagement threshold.

Do I need to change my streaming settings?

No. You do not need to change anything in your streaming software.

You can continue creating content and streaming in 1080p. However, your livestream and VODs may not display 1080p to viewers until your channel becomes eligible for that resolution option.

How do I unlock 1080p?

Keep streaming, creating engaging content, and growing your community.

1080p access is managed automatically and becomes available once your channel meets the required engagement threshold.

As your channel continues to grow, the next milestone is reaching a 75+ average CCV. Reaching this milestone, along with meeting other requirements, puts you on the path to becoming a verified creator.

Do I need to do anything?

No action is required.

Keep streaming as normal. Resolution availability is managed automatically based on your channel’s growth and engagement, so there are no settings you need to update.
