Question

Greetings,
Can someone help me with this? I am trying to make a desktop application for Youtube where user can Login and update his profile etc. I am doing following

using Google.GData.Client;
using Google.GData.Extensions;
using Google.GData.YouTube;
using Google.GData.Extensions.MediaRss;
using Google.YouTube;

//Send Connection Request //I am doing something wrong here

YouTubeRequestSettings settings = new YouTubeRequestSettings("example app", developerKey, username, password);

YouTubeRequest request = new YouTubeRequest(settings);

I don’t know what to do next and

how can I ensure if username and password are right? Please help

Thank you

I’m doing the same, and what you did is correct. You just need to catch the Exception that occurs. My code:

        Video newVideo = new Video();
        newVideo.Title = textBoxTitle.Text;// "Smideo Generated Movie";
        newVideo.Tags.Add(new MediaCategory("Travel", YouTubeNameTable.CategorySchema));
        newVideo.Keywords = textBoxKeyWords.Text;
        newVideo.Description = textBoxDescription.Text;
        newVideo.YouTubeEntry.Private = false;
        newVideo.Tags.Add(new MediaCategory("Test, Example",
          YouTubeNameTable.DeveloperTagSchema));
        try
        {
             createdVideo = request.Upload(newVideo);
        }
        catch(InvalidCredentialsException c)
        {
             doSomethingAboutInvalidCredentials(c);
        }
