youtube user's playlist videos in separate subfolders not working

[ZubairLK]

Hi,

I am trying to download all videos in all playlists in a channel and putting them in sub-folders.

Instead of putting them in sub-folders, it puts them in Uploads_by_Username

I have tried reading the docs. But might have missed something..

Here is my command line and output.

zubairlk@zubairlk-linux /mnt/khan $ youtube-dl -cw -f '(webm)[height<480]' -o '/mnt/khanurdu/%(playlist)s_2/%(playlist_index)s_%(title)s_%(id)s.%(ext)s' --yes-playlist --restrict-filenames ytuser:khanacademy -R 10000 -v

ERROR: Interrupted by user
zubairlk@zubairlk-linux /mnt/khan $

Is this a case of waiting until all those not in a playlist are downloaded, then the rest of the playlists will be downloaded?

Feels like the playlist id/title isn't being read correctly.

I tried reading the json output. Takes a ton of time for that channel, might want to try a different user.

But the playlist titles were all uploads by khanacademy. :/

Thanks,
ZubairLK

btw. youtube-dl is extremely awesome! +1 for the devs behind it!

This is expected behavior. See #7372.

Thank-you for the quick response!
