Can't log in to YouTube

jeffjn wrote on 5/21/2013, 2:41 AM

Just working with the YouTube upload and once the the file has been rendered I'm asked for log-in details. The interface won't accept my log-in. I have two accounts, I'm certain the details I'm using for both are correct, I can log in manually with both sets of details, and my passwords are simple alpha-numeric strings.

I know that YouTube sometimes changes the API, so can anyone, as of 21/5/13, actually use the YouTube feature?

I know that manual uploading is probably more convienint for heavy use, but I'd like to use the feature since it is there. I'd also not like to have re-render the movie it has made. Where can I find the file it was going to upload if I had managed to log in?

TIA

Worked OK for me. But I get no request to login anyway. Could your issue be connected with YT's recent change asking users to login with their Google email ID? I've almost given up trying to understand the many apparently arbitrary changes that Google churn out...

It's in the current project folder as defined here: File > Settings > Program > Folder > Project.

(Use hotkey Y for this.)

Thanks for testing it. I've got to admit that I had got one of the accounts details wrong, and can now log in and upload to that account, but the other account (with the same password) just refuses to allow MEP to log in.

Bit stumped, but as it's unique to one account the problem isn't a showstopper. I don't reall want to change my log-in or password but might experiment later on.

Thanks for pointing me to the renndered file location.
