[YouTube-API] Re: Request entity too large

Hello,

I'm not sure I completely understand what you're asking.

If you'd like to see some (Java) App Engine code that handles the two
steps involved in browser-based uploads, you can take a look at the
YouTube Direct project.

This servlet takes some metadata about a video, requests a browser-
based upload token from the YouTube API, and returns that token to the
browser JavaScript client:

http://code.google.com/p/youtube-direct/source/browse/trunk/ytd/src/com/google/ytd/embed/GetUploadToken.java

This is the client code that requests the token, inserts it into the
browser form, and then submits the form, thereby uploading the file:

http://code.google.com/p/youtube-direct/source/browse/trunk/ytd/war/js/embed.js#436

You kind of have to see everything in action to understand how things
fit together, but hopefully that code will give you something of an
idea as to how you could proceed.

Cheers,
