Sorry, the script focus in upload, it has no edit functionality. Patches 
welcome though.

Sorry but this patch makes no sense, you'll need to learn some Python before ;-)

It does not work for me.

File "youtube_upload.py", line 219
    def update_description(self, entry, description):

Note that delete_video_from_playlist was split by your new function.

Also, when creating patches create a full one (-r) from the parent directory of 
the project. Take also care of indentation, no tabs, only spaces.

Ok, that makes sense. Patches always against trunk version. Check it out with 
subversion and then send the output of "svn diff". Thanks

Applied in r182, and refactored in r183 (also title is editable). Ideally it 
should be able to update everthing, but it requires some work to do the update 
properly, probably reusing _create_video_entry.

For now, title and description are updateable. Note also that the URL is a 
positional argument now, not the value of the option.
