Password Protected Vimeo Albums

See original GitHub issue

Hello There, I’ve been trying to play a password-protected album on my Chromecast. Omitting the --video-password option catt asks me to provide the password with “–video-password” option:

$  catt cast "https://vimeo.com/showcase/xyz"
ERROR: This album is protected by a password, use the --video-password option
Error: Remote resource not found.

When providing the password using this option it says the option does not exist:

$ catt cast --video-password MY_PASSWORD "https://vimeo.com/showcase/8551988"
Usage: catt cast [OPTIONS] VIDEO_URL
Try 'catt cast -h' for help.

Error: no such option: --video-password

Am I doing something wrong here? I verified it with youtube-dl and it works fine. But cannot make it work with catt.

Try this:

catt cast -y videopassword=MY_PASSWORD "https://vimeo.com/showcase/8551988"

No, this is because that’s a YouTube-dl option, not a CATT option. I’m not at the computer currently but I think we have a ytdl command line option.
