-= Introduction =
-
-_Youtube-upload_ is a command-line script that uploads videos to Youtube. If a video does not comply with Youtube limitations (<15mins for a normal user) you must split it before using ffmpeg or any other tool. _Youtube-upload_ should work on any platform (GNU/Linux, BSD, OS X, Windows, ...) that runs Python.
-
-= Dependencies =
-
-  * [http://www.python.org python 2.6 or 2.7]
-  * [http://code.google.com/p/gdata-python-client python-gdata] (>= 1.2.4)
-
-Note: You must have logged in at least once into your Youtube account prior to uploading any videos. 
-
-= Download & Install =
-
-  * [http://code.google.com/p/youtube-upload/downloads/list Stable release]:
-
-{{{
-$ wget http://youtube-upload.googlecode.com/files/youtube-upload-VERSION.tgz
-$ tar xvzf youtube-upload-VERSION.tgz
-$ cd youtube-upload-VERSION
-$ sudo python setup.py install
-}}}
-
-  * [http://code.google.com/p/youtube-upload/source/checkout From repository]:
-
-{{{
-$ svn checkout http://youtube-upload.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ youtube-upload
-$ cd youtube-upload
-$ sudo python setup.py install
-}}}
-
-  * If you don't want (or you can't) install software on the computer, run it directly from sources:
-
-{{{
-$ cd youtube-upload-VERSION
-$ python youtube_upload/youtube_upload.py ...
-}}}
-
-= Usage examples =
-
-* Upload a video:
-
-{{{
-$ youtube-upload --email=myemail@gmail.com --password=mypassword \
-                 --title="A.S. Mutter" --description="A.S. Mutter plays Beethoven" \
-                 --category=Music --keywords="mutter, beethoven" anne_sophie_mutter.flv
-www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxzZ-fYjeYs
-}}}
-
-* Upload a video with a description from file (_description.txt_):
-
-{{{
-$ youtube-upload --email=myemail@gmail.com --password=mypassword \
-                 --title="A.S. Mutter" --description="$(< \description.txt)" \
-                 --category=Music --keywords="mutter, beethoven" anne_sophie_mutter.flv
-www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxzZ-fYjeYs
-}}}
-
-* Upload the video using the Youtube API:
-
-{{{
-$ youtube-upload --api-upload [OTHER OPTIONS] file.flv
-}}}
-
-If you set explicitly the {{{--api-upload}}} options or {{{pycurl}}} isn't installed, the original Youtube API will be used to upload the video file. This method is not recommended because it does not shows the nice progressbar.
-
-* Upload a splited video:
-
-{{{
-$ youtube-upload [OPTIONS] --title="TITLE" video.part1.avi video.part2.avi
-www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxzZ-fYjeYs # title: TITLE [1/2]
-www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxzZ-fYsdff # title: TITLE [2/2]
-}}}
-
-* Add a video to a playlist:
-
-{{{
-$ youtube-upload [OPTIONS] --add-to-playlist=http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/7986C428284A40A1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zpqu97l3G1U
-}}}
-
-Note that the argument must be the video URL (not a local file) and the playlist is the URL of the feed (with no prefix "PL").
-
-* Get available categories:
-
-{{{
-$ youtube-upload --get-categories
-Tech Education Animals People Travel Entertainment Howto Sports Autos Music News Games Nonprofit Comedy Film
-}}}
-
-* Split a video with _ffmpeg_
-
-Youtube currently limits videos to <2Gb and <15' for almost all users. You can use the Bash example script to split it before uploading:
-
-{{{
-$ bash examples/split_video_for_youtube.sh video.avi
-video.part1.avi
-video.part2.avi
-video.part3.avi
-}}}
-
-* Upload videos with _curl_
-
-The script uses pycurl by default (when available) to upload the video, but if you need to tweak the upload parameters take a look at the Bash script included with the sources ([http://code.google.com/p/youtube-upload/source/browse/trunk/examples/upload_with_curl.sh examples/upload_with_curl.sh]). This command, for example, would upload _somevideo.flv_ with a limit rate of 100KBytes:
-
-{{{
-$ youtube-upload --get-upload-form-info [OPTIONS] | bash examples/upload_with_curl.sh --limit-rate 100k
-}}}
-
-* Upload a non-public (private/unlisted) video:
-
-{{{
-$ youtube-upload --private ...
-}}}
-
-{{{
-$ youtube-upload --unlisted ...
-}}}
-
-* Get password from standard input
-
-{{{
-$ cat password.txt | youtube-upload -p - ....
-}}}
-
-* Use a HTTP proxy
-
-Set environment variables *http_proxy* and *https_proxy*:
-
-{{{
-$ export http_proxy=http://user:password@host:port
-$ export https_proxy=http://user:password@host:port
-$ youtube-upload ....
-
-}}}
-
-* Update metadata (title or description).
-
-Set new title for video:
-
-{{{
-$ youtube-upload --email=EMAIL --password=PASSWORD --update-metadata --title "new title" www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxzZ-fYjeYs
-}}}

-= Caveats =
-
-== Validate your credentials == 
-Before you upload a video using the script, do it manually to make sure everything is ok (you have a valid user/password and an associated channel). See issue57 for more details.
-
-== Using two-step verification ==
-
-If you are using [https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/180744?hl=en two-step verification] issue an application-specific password and use it in the script as if it was your real password. See [https://code.google.com/p/youtube-upload/issues/detail?id=111 issue111] for more details.
-
-== Sign in using App Passwords ==
-
-An App password is a 16-digit passcode that gives an app or device permission to access your Google Account. If you use 2-Step-Verification and are seeing a “password incorrect” error when trying to access your Google Account, an App password may solve the problem. 
-
-https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en
-
-== Progressbar ==
-
-You need both packages *python-progressbar* and *pycurl* installed to see the progress bar when uploading a video.
