I'm trying to upload a video using youtube api, with Ruby. But I'm getting the following error:
badContent: Media type 'application/mp4' is not supported. Valid media types: [video/*, application/octet-stream]
If I check the video file is video/mp4
file --mime-type test.mp4 test.mp4: video/mp4
I'm using the code from the official documentation:
