Kick Extension for PotPlayer
This extension enables native playback of Kick streams, VODs, and clips directly in PotPlayer.
PotPlayer is a powerful multimedia player for Windows that supports a wide range of video formats, subtitles, and streaming sources.
Since May 2018, PotPlayer has included extension support (written in AngelScript), allowing developers to extend its playback capabilities — just like this one does for Kick.
- Play Kick live streams, VODs, and clips directly in PotPlayer
- View detailed metadata: title, game, author, viewer count, and more
- Switch between available video qualities via the quality menu
- Automatically display channel thumbnails and titles in the playlist
- Download this repository.
- Unzip the contents.
- Copy the
Mediafolder to one of the following locations:
C:\Program Files\DAUM\PotPlayer\Extension\
or
{PotPlayer_Folder}\Extension\
That’s it - PotPlayer will automatically recognize the new extension.
The extension supports all major Kick link formats, including:
- Live stream:
https://kick.com/asmongold - Video on demand (VOD):
https://kick.com/asmongold/videos/8635c49e-6eff-4628-a496-2479acc21e4a - Clip:
https://kick.com/asmongold/clips/clip_01JWRYD50DNZQADF0A3EEJV15J
After opening a Kick link, PotPlayer will display a playback screen similar to this:
Interface details:
- Header: Includes the name of the streamer and the current category
- Description: Includes author name, link to the original Kick content, viewer/live user count, and clip/video/stream title
- Quality menu: Lets you select the preferred resolution (bottom-right corner)
- Playlist: Shows the stream’s profile picture, author name, and clip/video/stream title
- This extension uses Kick’s public endpoints to fetch playback URLs and metadata.
- Requires a PotPlayer build with extension support (May 2018 or later).
