Thanks for the update..

Actually i have directly pass the path of the file . when i upload less than 1 MB file it is successfully added on you tube & When i try to upload 8 MB file it is given the following exception:-

Object reference not set to an instance of an object" at this line return "createdVideo.VideoId;" even i have added the code which you have given me . i am still facing the same problem & one more thing when i log in in to my youtube account . this video is still showing under processing.....
I am confused.....

are you selecting video file using file upload control or directly giving the path in code.

if you are using file upload control :

fileupload control default file size is 4mb if you
upload more than 4mb
it will not take that . so you have to change it in web.config

within tag add the below code

you can increase or decrease the maxRequestLength according
to your requirement
