I'm trying to quickly get the video info to a soundcloud playlist. For example https://soundcloud.com/shaun-flint/sets/hip.

I run the command

"youtube-dl -j https://soundcloud.com/shaun-flint/sets/hip"

and it iterates through everything but takes ages!

Is there any faster method to get all info?

I noticed that this is the same for youtube playlists.
Thanks.

No, you can't extract everything without actually extracting everything.
There is a way to get only individual links with --flat-playlist but it's obviously not what you want.
