To download your Kick replays you must first install 3rd party software.
We will cover 2 different methods of download:
Before we start to download our replay, some tools require the .m3u8
file for the Kick Replay (VOD).
Step 1 - Finding the m3u8 file
If you would prefer to use a tool to find the .m3u8 file for your stream replay please try: https://kicktools.net/kick-vod-m3u8
Open your browser and press F12
Click the "Network" tab
Load the replay in your browser
In the network tab, search for
m3u8
Right Click the file
master.m3u8
and select Copy Link Address
🥳 You now have the playlist file copied to your clipboard ready for the next step!
Downloading your Replay with JDownloader
First, you need to ensure that JDownloader has been installed onto your computer.
Start JDownloader
Click "Add New Links"
Paste the
m3u8
link we copied earlier into the top text box, select a download location and press Continue
JDownloader will automatically display all the available resolutions to download
Right click on the resolution you wish to download and select "Start Download"
First time using JDownloader will prompt you to install FFMPEG - this is required to convert the
m3u8
file to a video file.
Once installed, your download will start.
Downloading your Kick replay with yt-dlp
yt-dlp is a command line tool that once installed can be used to download your Kick replay and no longer requires the m3u8 link.
Open your command line / terminal
If on Windows, go to the directory where the yt-dlp file has been installed
Run the following Command:
yt-dlp <kick_replay_url>
