How to bypass CORS from client side?

Question

JavaScript

Actually the problem:
https://codepen.io/Energy2/pen/arePaG
An error appears in the browser console
Access to XMLHttpRequest at ' https://vod-secure.twitch.tv/c637cb4e408bbbefaba4_... ' from origin ' https:// s.codepen.io ' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.
How can I get around without resorting to proxying through my server?

deal with this ?

Answer 1

And what about VLC? This is a separate application. There may not be (most likely) a CORS check at all, because that's only relevant in the browser.
For the browser, accordingly, you need to create a browser extension with access rights to the necessary sites - it will be able to ignore CORS, having such rights. And a regular tab cannot simply access other sites at different addresses.
