I have written a C# Wrapper Assembly that encapsulates all the YouTube API functionality into a set of .Net methods and deserializes the result sets into objects for the .Net developer to use.
The Main YouTube DLL is written in C# but the Zip contains ASP.NET Web Application Projects written in C# and VB.NET that demonstrate some of the Functionality. All Source Code is provided.
N.B Projects are in Visual Studio 2005 format.
