[YouTube-API] Re: cannot delete an uploaded video, .net

Hello,

You need to retrieve the video entry from the uploads feed, or it
won't be editable. The Uri you'd want to use is

"http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/default/uploads/" +
videoID

(I'm told by our tech writer that we're real close to getting the
docs updated, as it comes up multiple times per week and the current
docs don't reflect the correct type of request.)

Cheers,
