streamlink-plugin-kick VS mlbv

Streamlink has very detailed and newbie friendly documentation. Here's the plugin you'd need to scrape Kick links.

Unfortunately, streamlink doesn't support kick by default so we will need to use a plugin which can be downloaded here. From that github please download kick.py and place it in

Copy the kick.py file into one of the the sideload directories

If you subscribe to MLB.TV, there are command line tools like mlbv that will let you sign in and download the game as a video file. You can do it anytime with the archive game for the rest of the season, so you don’t have to worry about recording it live. https://github.com/kmac/mlbv

Guys, my weird linux mlb.tv setup that lets me watch (my legal paid subscription) in whatever media player I want (I use mpv) isn't working today because of the weird resumed game thing. Now I have to watch on the mlb website and it's fucking awful.

Usually I'd recommend Kodi but that's obviously not an option on Roku. If you really want to watch on Roku but avoid the MLB app right now, you could run a Python program like mlbv to download the game to a network share or stream it to a port: https://github.com/kmac/mlbv/issues/22#issuecomment-425649277

There's a Python program called mlbv that should allow you to log in and access older games: https://github.com/kmac/mlbv

Or a tool like mlbv which lets you download archive games, so you can watch them in any media player on your network: https://github.com/kmac/mlbv

Also, if you are on a PC, you could install Kodi and the unofficial MLB.TV addon to get the ad-free streams that way. There are also utilities like mlbv (https://github.com/kmac/mlbv) which can download games to a file and/or play them through VLC.
