My attempt to download the videos in my vimeo "WatchItLater" list resulted in a download of an apparently generic video instead of tha ones that are actually in that list.

The funny part is that the login seems to work when retrieving the watch later videos, ¿is at least the length of the list correct?

Indeed, the number of videos is correct. There are no special characters in my password or email address, aside from the "@" and the "." in the email address, it's just [A-Za-z0-9]
