[YouTube-API] Re: Bug: Internal server error from UpdatePlaylistVideoEntryMetaData

Hello Piotr,

Please see

https://groups.google.com/group/youtube-api-gdata/browse_thread/thread/f47d2f95b2810561

Unfortunately, the engineering team has not yet been able to resolve
the underlying bug, but I just reminded them that this continues to
confuse developers.

Cheers,
