I don't know if this error affects functionalility at all, but after each cron run after I've uploaded a video, I get these errors:

Video Upload: error c8 <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>yt:validationinvalid_charactermedia:group/media:description/text() 0 while attempting to upload a video.

The video files are still being processed so I'm not too sure if it will work yet, but I'm curious as to what these errors indicate.

Many thanks,

Wayne

I've never seen that sort of error come back from YouTube. It appears that the Zend library is not able to parse this into a useful error. Do the videos get sent to YouTube and processed? What version of the Zend library are you using?

Hmmm, I've uploaded the videos via the field around 12 hours ago, and it says its still being processed...

I've also uploaded the exact same video via YouTube and it seems to have been processed correctly already.

The videos I uploaded via Video Upload aren't showing up in the My Videos list on YouTube, is this an indication to anything?

I've pushed a new dev version, which you can grab via CVS, or wait for the packaging scripts to run. Once you have the latest version, edit your field settings. Many people, #272235: watchdog youtube errors for instance, have been getting YouTube errors based on improperly formatted default keywords.

Ok I'll wait for the packaged version. Thanks a lot for this and I'll report back soon and tell you if it works =)

I just released version 1.0 for 6, so you can grab that instead :)

Thanks for that!

Well I've tried it, and there is yet another error code:

Video Upload: error 191 <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>yt:validationinvalid_charactermedia:group/media:description/text()yt:validationtoo_shortmedia:group/media:category[@scheme='http://gdata.youtube.com/schemas/2007/developertags.cat']/text() 0 while attempting to upload a video.

These errors only appear when I run cron.

Many thanks,

Hmm I've removed the developer tags after following http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/1.0/developers_guide_protocol.html#V... but I'm back to error c8.

I can't find any invalid characters in the description...

I've looked on the Google YouTube API site which yeilds a lot of information: http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/1.0/developers_guide_protocol.html#V...

but I'm still stuck.

Many Thanks,

Wayne

It works! 8th test lucky =D

The problem was the FCK editor I believe. As everything parsed through FCK editor has html tags like

, YouTube doesn't like the symbol "<" (which was pointed out in the document above) and spits out that error.

You've already got something to check for invalid formatting in the YouTube keywords, maybe you could extend this to the description?

Great module, much appreciated =D
