Hey there,

Downloading a PW protected clip from Vimeo seems to be broken. I tried with and without the s in https. Thanks

I tried the pw protected test video in vimeo.py and that failed as well, with the same error.

The test video works fine, the problem is that the --max-quality option requires a parameter( see the manual), which makes the argument parser think that the password is a video url. If you want to download the best quality possible you can drop the option, it's the default behaviour.
I'm closing the issue, if that doesn't solve the problem, please comment here and we will reopen it.

To clarify, the problem is in /etc/youtube-dl.conf. Remove the --max-quality parameter from there.
