Here is a complete PHP example to upload large files.

    <?php

### TITLE: Resumable Uploads
### DESCRIPTION: <p>The code sample below calls the API's <code>videos.insert</code> method to add a video to user's channel. The code also utilizes <code>Google_MediaFileUpload</code> class with the <code>resumable upload</code> parameter set to <code>true</code> to be able to to upload the video in chunks.</p>
### API_METHOD: youtube.videos.insert
