I've added support for it, you'll be able to pass the url or just use youtube-dl ':ythistory' (of course you'll need to provide your login information).
Thanks for the report.

This fix has been added to youtube-dl 2013.11.25. Type sudo youtube-dl -U to update.

Works great, funny it was such a quick fix, Thanks!

yuvadm made a phantomjs version and got me the idea in the first place
thank you both :)

I'm not sure this works properly, it's downloading page after page, but they're all the same (debugged with --write-pages)...

@yuvadm please open a new issue and post the output when running youtube-dl :ythistory --write-pages, it may be a problem with the _PAGING_STEP variable, it's a bit weird.

I'm trying to download my youtube history, but I can't figure out where is it stored. I don't want to download any videos, just my feed as a JSON file.

I'm running this:

youtube-dl -u $username -p %passwd ":ythistory" --skip-download -jv
