[YouTube-API] Re: Allow all comments with approval only??

Hello Kent,

Could you capture the HTTP traffic (both request and response,
headers and body) and see what's actually being sent and received by
your API calls? The easiest way to do that would be use a tool like
Wireshark (http://wireshark.org) to capture the HTTP traffic, since
the logging used by the GData client library will only capture
headers.

If you share the log info in this group, please be sure to X out your
developer key and authentication header values so as not to share your
credentials publicly.

Cheers,
-Jeff Posnick, YouTube API Team
