Does anyone know how I can use youtube-dl for these specialized cases?

  1. How to download 180/360 VR videos?

If I just just the URL in the command line, does it by default download the full 180/360 video?

  1. How to download those videos with a tracklist in description?

For example, this one:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WU7SGn0MeP0&list=FLT7JApUJPhBmVwoLb2o9HWA&index=1&pp=gAQB

Probably the track list cannot be embedded in the resulting webm file. Are there any other apps that can download such videos?

    3. How to sign in with youtube-dl?

    I’m not sure if this will work, but you can use --cookies cookies.txt alongside with a cookies.txt file (you can get it with cookies.txt add on). It works for downloading private playlists. So it may also work for age restricted videos.
