The new helper methods eliminate the need to explicitly create a MediaGroup object. Instead, you can now set your video's metadata directly:

The new helper methods eliminate the need to explicitly create a MediaGroup object. Instead, you can now set your video's metadata directly:
$myVideoEntry->setVideoTitle('My Test Movie');
$myVideoEntry->setVideoDescription('My Test Movie');
$myVideoEntry->setVideoCategory('Comedy');
