[YouTube-API] Re: So how to authenticate now?

Hello Dennis,

We currently recommend OAuth 2. In fact, all of the other methods of
authentication are deprecated:

http://googledevelopers.blogspot.com/2012/04/changes-to-deprecation-policies-and-api.html

(The YouTube API documentation is being updated to reflect this.)

There is an unfortunate situation where using OAuth 2 when performing
an upload can lead to a failure if the upload takes a while and the
OAuth 2 access token expires before the upload is complete. We're
actively working to get that situation addressed, though. Is that the
"technical issue" that you are referring to, or was there something
else that was preventing you from using OAuth 2?

Cheers,
