Hi, the vimeo:likes extractor in version 2014.09.28.1 only finds first (last by date) 25 videos even when there is more of them.

youtube-dl -v:
[debug] System config: []
[debug] User config: []
[debug] Command-line args: ['-v']
[debug] Encodings: locale UTF-8, fs UTF-8, out UTF-8, pref UTF-8
[debug] youtube-dl version 2014.09.28.1
[debug] Python version 2.7.3 - Linux-3.2.0-4-amd64-x86_64-with-debian-7.6
[debug] Proxy map: {}
Usage: youtube-dl [options] url [url...]

....... when used with vimeo-likes as source:

[generic] 755559_likes: Requesting header
[generic] 755559_likes: Downloading webpage
[generic] 755559_likes: Extracting information
[download] Downloading playlist: Vimeo / urza's likes
[generic] playlist Vimeo / urza's likes: Collected 25 video ids (downloading 25 of them)
[download] Downloading video #1 of 25
...

It downloaded only first 3 videos, the rest was already downloaded in the directory (manually) which is good and correct, but the number of total liked videos is wrong... https://vimeo.com/user755559/likes should by 296.

Thanks
Kind Regards

Looks like we'll need to parse the pages instead of the feed. By the way, that's why we ask for an example URL - so that we can properly test our code with a real-life example.

If you want I can send you my C# script that does exactly that. I use it to save my likes to file and use the file as source for youtube-dl.. For python developer it should be easy to translate into python equivalent..

As for an url example feel free to use my likes in the post above
