I just downloaded youtube-dl what I want to is download all the playlist from this channel https://www.youtube.com/user/khanacademy/playlists?sort=dd&shelf_id=0&view=1and have the playlist download into a seperate folder
I try doing this

Download all playlists of YouTube channel/user keeping each playlist in separate directory:

youtube-dl -o '%(uploader)s/%(playlist)s/%(playlist_index)s - %(title)s.%(ext)s' https://www.youtube.com/user/khanacademy/playlists?sort=dd&shelf_id=0&view=1

but it doesnt work.

I just need help with the command line. I know what I want to do but don't know how to put it all together. I want to download them in mp4 format, 360p resolution, I want it to have the name of the playlist and the videos to be numbered in the order that they appear in the playlist.

And also to be able to download all the playlist from this URL

https://www.youtube.com/user/khanacademy/playlists?sort=dd&shelf_id=0&view=1

This command works just fine for what you are trying to do. For selecting format bother to read FAQ on format selection.
