Youtube-dl doesn't download the playlist

Question

I'm trying to download this playlist

The download starts normally but then, only the specific video gets downloaded and not the whole playlist. I have downloaded entire playlist in the past but this is a particular playlist the Youtube-dl doesn't seem to download in its entirety. I also tried -

youtube-dl -i $URL
youtube-dl --yes-playlist $URL
youtube-dl --playlist-start=1 --playlist-end= 35 $URL

What is the solution to this problem?

Try with a new version of youtube-dl – Arun Jun 12 '17 at 14:43 — Arun, Jun 12 '17 at 14:43
I think wjandrea is spot-on. Try that. – Samuel Jun 12 '17 at 15:36 — Samuel, Jun 12 '17 at 15:36

You are actually downloading the video at index 1. Remove the index parameter so you can download the whole playlist. Follow the link Don't forget to add --yes-playlist

 $ youtube-dl --yes-playlist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ez10ADR_gM&list=PL8dPuuaLjXtPNZwz5_o_5uirJ8gQXnhEO
