Description may not be accepted by youtube for containing specific characters. #46

Sometimes a description might contain something like angle brackets (<>) which are disallowed by YouTube. The error sent by the API does not say this is the case, but after some testing I discovered that the YouTube API disallows certain characters from its description. These include the previously stated angle brackets, as well as ASCII control characters.

There should be a simple search and error to catch things like this.
