[RadAd]

It seems it gets my watch later list ok but when trying to actually download the video it doesn't like the login info.

Using version 2015.03.09 I get:

youtube-dl :vimeowatchlater -u user -p password

I have fixed the login, at least it works for me.
Please comment when you try the next version, to know if we should investigate more or not.

With version 2015.03.15 when the playlist is empty it works correctly, however to actually download a file I get an error:

It works for me, could you try downloading with the specific video url and username and password?

[RadAd]

It works when I download the specific file:

They use the same code, so I don't understand why one of them fails.
A workaround is to use the following command: youtube-dl -u <user> -p <password> :vimeowatchlater --dump-single-json --flat-playlist | youtube-dl --load-info -

[RadAd]

Thanks, the workaround works fine for me.

Something I have noticed is that when downloading the watch later list it logs in twice, presumable once for the list and again to download the actual videos.

The first time it logs in the login token always ends in '.0', ie 92e578b732281df617045b3863621aba.0
The second time it logs in its looks like: 1d717533adf204ed82100e7876ce700f.2530dbae785d
8a8cf5e37005f0aba610

But in your workaround both times it logs in the token ends in '.0'
I did use 'youtube-dl --load-info - -u -p ' in the workaround just to test this.

[jaimeMF]

It's the same in my case, so I have no clue of why it doesn't work for you.

[leotulipan]

I think this is related to the login-token problem #6488 we are having, as using the Workaround from @RadAd yields
