youtube upload

[ernie]

Hi guys.
I make a yotube appload application,using youtube api clientlogin.
First request performed good and server returned me auth key,but on second request(when i try to upload video),server return me bad request.

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
    QMainWindow(parent),
    ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
    ui->setupUi(this);
    but = new QPushButton("Upload");
    layout()->addWidget(but);
    connect(but,SIGNAL(clicked()),this,SLOT(staTimer()));
}
 
MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
    delete ui;
}
 
 
void MainWindow::staTimer()
{
    QNetworkRequest request;
    request.setUrl(QUrl("https://www.google.com/youtube/accounts/ClientLogin"));
    request.setHeader(QNetworkRequest::ContentTypeHeader,"application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
    QByteArray reqString;
    /////////Email=your email,passwd=your pass
    reqString = "Email=_______&Passwd=_____&service=youtube&source=test";
    _networkMen = new QNetworkAccessManager();
    _networkMen->post(request,reqString);
    connect(_networkMen, SIGNAL(finished(QNetworkReply*)), this, SLOT(handleNetworkReply(QNetworkReply*)));
}
 
void MainWindow::handleNetworkReply(QNetworkReply *reply)
{
    reply->ignoreSslErrors();
    if (reply->error())
    {
        qDebug()<<reply->errorString();
    }
    else
    {
    QByteArray otv = reply->readAll();
    QList<QByteArray> lst(otv.split('\n'));
    lst.removeLast();

what i do wrong?thanks

[squidge]

Why do you create request by simple string concatenation rather than use proper MIME library?

Is your unique developer key correct ? and did you encode it into the data correctly ? [I wouldn't include this in your posts BTW even though it is likely to be stored in your application and transmitted in plain text]

Try using something like Wireshark to determine exactly what you are sending, and compare it with a program known to work.

Or you could just use the Youtube client API library, which handles all this for you.

[ernie]

squidge,thanks for reply,i use wireshark and determinate my post request and post request from youtube api sample,it's same.
how can i use the proper MIME library?i don't know about it in Qt,sorry
developer key correct,i copied it from http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/dashboard for my app(don't worry,it's test app and key not secret )
how encode data correct?i try to convert bynary data to base64 (fileBinaryData.toBase64()),but it's not given result.
youtube give libraries for java,c# ,not for c++ unfortunately

[squidge]

So your sending exactly the same data as the api sample, but the sample works and yours does not? That is most odd, but at least it proves that the encoding and mime headers are already correct, so there's really no point changing something that works.

[ernie]

yes,header(i sure) and body(i think) of request is same as api sample,but i thinks it's must be because i encode file binary data wrong?i try to delete video with my auth data and video is deleted,i think headers is true,may body of post request is wrong?i can't try the sample to work(request in sample and in my programm is identical),may it dapend on country where are i from?some says,that upload api work worst in China and another countries, i'm from Russia and i can upload video with youtube web interface without problem,what application you can advise for me to try upload video to youtube besides Free Youtube Uploader(it cant's run in my computer,.net framework fault)?thanks,squidge

[squidge]

I would try sending "Content-Type: video/mp4" rather than "Content-Type: video/*", as you are sending, not receiving.

[ernie]

squidge, i try to send video/mpeg ,video/mp4 ,not result anybody can upload video to youtube from qt app?

[squidge]

Ah, you didn't say that in your original post.

Looking at your code, your "Content-length" field looks incorrect too. That is supposed to be the length of the entire post body, where as you have it only being the length of the binary data part.

[ernie]

I try set content lenght after request body filling (request.setRawHeader("Content-lenght",QString::number(reqString.length()).toStdS tring().c_str()))),not result

[squidge]

Then you'll need to fix your .net fault and compare the two wireshark traces, I'm out of ideas.

[ernie]

squidge,i fix it,but free youtube uploader doesn't work toonow i'm downloading directx sdk,there is an youtube upload example in it
