limited to 1050 videos!

[electroweak]

Hi,

using youtube-dl-2014.10.15
I am seeing a hidden limit on the number of videos downloadable from a channel...
It's saying there are only 1050 videos in 35 pages (presumably 30 vids/page) -- but there are far more than 1050..
e.g. here is a command but it stops at 1050! ..:
youtube-dl https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK08_B5SZwoEUk2hDPMOijQ --f 17/36/18/best --no-part -i

the output is:
...
[youtube:channel] UCK08_B5SZwoEUk2hDPMOijQ: Downloading page #34
[youtube:channel] UCK08_B5SZwoEUk2hDPMOijQ: Downloading page #35
[youtube] Channel UCK08_B5SZwoEUk2hDPMOijQ: Found 1050 videos
[download] Downloading playlist: UCK08_B5SZwoEUk2hDPMOijQ
[youtube:channel] playlist UCK08_B5SZwoEUk2hDPMOijQ: Collected 1050 video ids (downloading 1050 of them)
...

Please help!! - I'm new to youtube-dl and I was not expecting such a limit. I've invested quite a lot of time over the last 3 days getting this to run over several channels and only now did I find this issue. Was it present in older versions, I wonder??

my issue would be solved if the pages were ordered such that #1 was newest and #35 was older, but as it stands, page #1 is the oldest videos - and so I am really interested in pages #35+

I see the reverse order issue has already been raised TWICE!
issues #561 and #249
(ps sorry in my previous comment I was not meaning to reference issues 1,35,35+ but page numbers in my output from youtube-dl!!!!)

Right: i found that if i specify the channels thus
ytuser:UCK08_B5SZwoEUk2hDPMOijQ
I get the newest-first ordering. :) -- problem solved for me.

I should add that checking youtube "video published dates" with youtube-dl is very slow; the --download-archive option excludes videos very quickly. For me, then, getting just the newest videos in a channel with 1000+ videos will be quickest if I use the --download-archive option with the file holding the ID's of the older videos.

Any updates on this issue. The "ytuser" work around is no longer an option because of #5646

nimajalali,

I think jaimeMF solved it in issue #5646 ...
#5646

You can just use the full url. Omit the "ytuser:" and just have it as e.g.:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXV7LWJ5ckEYemnyd2Z9OBA/videos
which replaces the line:
ytuser:UCXV7LWJ5ckEYemnyd2Z9OBA

NOTE: you must have "/videos" at the end, after the channel gobbledygook/

I'll let you close the issue if it works for you as per my example.
(can you close it??) (I can, if you can't!)
