The descritption says it supports both password-protected and private videos, but in what capacity and how to I use the feature??

When it encounters a password-protected video, a dialog box is displayed.

Example: http://vimeo.com/68375962 (Password: youtube-dl)

The same applies to private videos. You will be asked for username and password. Unfortunately, this does not always work. Maybe in the future we can integrate a web browser for "modern" login methods and use the cookies.
