[youtube] playlist-start and playlist-end downloads all pages even when not needed

[rtega]

example:
youtube-dl --playlist-start=1 --playlist-end=10 http://www.youtube.com/user/FNNnewsCH
downloads all pages of the list even though it only needs the first page.

It is not a request. This is a bug report since it used to work like that before but now it no longer does.

As I described in issue #5922, the problem also exists when the dateafter and datebefore parameters are given for pages ordered by upload date. Maybe this can help narrow the issue down.

Yes, I knew we added support for that feature in some of the youtube extractors but I wasn't sure if it was the channel one.
Thanks for the report!

That's other problem, which would require some more work to implement (I understand why you can find it useful).
