Video Gallery - YouTube Video Import #548

Assigned to Problems, Issues and Bugs #7530. As reported in Tender:

1. Since Google changed their API requirements for uploading videos to YouTube, I can't seem to upload more than a 30 second video through the Family Connections Video interface. Anything larger than this and the process fails. No error, no timeout message, nothing but the web browser processing indicator on the tab stopping.
2. In addition, there is no "progress" indicator on the web page and it's not apparent anything at all is happening.
3. Rather than trying to keep up with changes at Google and use the API, perhaps you could provide a field where we can just paste the video URL of an existing video on our YouTube channel and family connections web page will create the thumbnail? Just like in VideoLightBox 3.1.

I'd love to secure the videos within the family connections software - can you help?
