[YouTube-API] Re: playListVideoEntry setPosition to 0 fails [solution]

Hello Marc,

Sorry about that. This is particularly confusing because some of the
client libraries (like the Java one) have logic in them that
explicitly subtract 1 from the indices used natively by the API, and
reverse that when sending updates. So in Java you'd want to pass in 0
for the first position, and in PHP you apparently pass in 1.

I'll get the docs updated.

Cheers,
