[YouTube-API] Re: PHP - Video entry state information not included for disallowed uploads using Zend_Gdata_YouTube::getUserUploads

Hello,

Could you try passing in the username 'default' to getUserUploads()
to ensure that you're actually requesting the uploads feed of the
currently authenticated user (i.e. 'default')? In general, I do think
that you should get back that app:state information from the uploads
feed assuming you're authenticated as the feed's owner.
