I'm trying to upload a video with a thumbnail using the python youtube-upload tool. The video uploads just fine but after uploading I get this message:
Using client secrets: D:\Programs\Python35\share/youtube_upload/client_secrets.jsonUsing credentials file: C:\Users\Name\.youtube-upload-credentials.jsonUsing category: Education (id=27)Start upload: render\video\DCCA.mp4Video URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=*censored*[RequestError] Server response: {"error": {"errors": [ {"domain": "youtube.thumbnail","reason": "forbidden","message": "The authenticated user doesnt have permissions to upload and set custom video thumbnails.","locationType": "header","location": "Authorization" } ],"code": 403,"message": "The authenticated user doesnt have permissions to upload and set custom video thumbnails." }}Now this is strange because my account is verified to upload custom thumbnails:
I even tested manually uploading a video with the thumbnail but it works without any problems. I also updated youtube-upload to the latest version but it just won't work.
Does anyone know whats going on here?
