Server Setup

Requirements

You will need:

• A version of Windows of some description (Mono support may be added in the future, main issue is external dependencies)
• .NET Framework 4.6
• QuickTime 7 (if you'd like to encode in Video1, Cinepak or Sorenson)
• Enough CPU grunt to run the transcoder
• YouTube API Key (see below).

Getting a YouTube API Key

An API key for YouTube is required to perform searches, and one day authenticate users. To get one:

1. Sign in to the Google Developer Console with your Google Account.
2. Create a new project
3. Create a Server API key
4. Save the key to apikey.txt in the same path as the server.
5. Authorize your project to use the YouTube APIs (what is our scope?)

Scopes Required:

TODO: Work these out, and work out what we need to properly support channels and playlists.
