As far as I can tell, youtube-dl doesn't support a user's reposts from soundcloud. There's also no documented way to get that information in their official API. There seems to be a way I found on stack overflow but it's undocumented. The second answer on the page is what I am referencing. I'd really appreciate this feature. I don't know enough about the api and youtube-dl to know if it's possible but if it's not then go ahead and close this issue. And I'll reopen it when I hear it's possible.

An example would be this soundcloud page. Here is the expected behavior with the --include-reposts being a flag that would include the feature I'm describing.

youtube-dl --include-reposts https://soundcloud.com/grynpyret

With this feature implemented, youtube-dl would then grab the first track under the "Recent" section of the soundcloud page, in this case it would be LUCA LUSH - VELVET GIRLS. At the time of posting this is the first track under the "Recent" section and it is a repost, denoted by the repost icon by the title of the track. See the bottom for what I mean by the repost icon.

This track is not included in the "Tracks" section of the user's page, which as of now, is all that is downloaded by youtube-dl.

Here is what I mean by the repost icon:

I'm sorry I didn't see that page before submitting an issue. I edited the original issue to include everything I saw there but if there's anything else I'll be happy to add more detail.
