We have a working Picasa class to upload photos. We have been trying to upload videos the same way but have been getting the error: A direct media post of videos is currently not supported.
According to https://developers.google.com/picasa-web/docs/3.0/developers_guide_protocol#PostVideo one could use supported MIME type and upload videos the same way as photos. As you can see in this method, we provide the correct MIME type: https://github.com/ShareX/ShareX/blob/master/ShareX.UploadersLib/ImageUploaders/Picasa.cs#L190 public override UploadResult Upload(Stream stream, string fileName) { if (!CheckAuthorization()) return null; if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(AlbumID)) { AlbumID = "default"; } UploadResult ur = new UploadResult(); string url = string.Format("https://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/api/user/default/albumid/"; + AlbumID); string contentType = Helpers.GetMimeType(fileName); NameValueCollection headers = GetAuthHeaders(); headers.Add("Slug", URLHelpers.URLEncode(fileName)); ur.Response = SendRequest(HttpMethod.POST, url, stream, contentType, null, headers); if (ur.Response != null) { XDocument xd = XDocument.Parse(ur.Response); XElement entry_element = xd.Element(AtomNS + "entry"); if (entry_element != null) { XElement group_element = entry_element.Element(MediaNS + "group"); if (group_element != null) { XElement content_element = group_element.Element(MediaNS + "content"); if (content_element != null) { ur.ThumbnailURL = content_element.GetAttributeValue("url"); int last_slash_index = ur.ThumbnailURL.LastIndexOf(@"/"); ur.URL = ur.ThumbnailURL.Insert(last_slash_index, @"/s0"); } } } } return ur; } } public class PicasaAlbumInfo { public string ID { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } public string Summary { get; set; } } When debugging, I can see for an mp4 file, we have" contentType = "video/mp4" This must be supported as per the Picasa Web Albums Data API guidelines. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Picasa Web Albums API" group.
