I used YouTube video upload API to upload video from my site to YouTube, however I also need to retrieve video description of a video providing its url. I used this line

<?php $entry= getVideoEntry("kNUBV9trDoA"); echo $entry->getVideoDescription();?>

I used require zend loader to operate those line like

include("Zend/Loader.php");

but when i do this and run the PHP file on server i get this error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function getVideoEntry()

i believe the loader file load every file needed to operate

but in operation.php there are also these lines 

Zend_Loader::loadClass('Zend_Gdata_YouTube');
Zend_Loader::loadClass('Zend_Gdata_AuthSub');
Zend_Loader::loadClass('Zend_Gdata_App_Exception');

but when i use those lines under loader include line i get this error

Warning: include_once(Zend\Gdata\YouTube.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in

they are all in that folder but the php script could not load them the path are all correct I've already checked .

How should i retrieve Video description of a YouTube video using this API what file do i need to require how do i initialize or are there any easier way to retrieve video description by providing URL or video id of YouTube

Regards

You are not getting you video entry correctly. It should be:

// Assuming $yt is an authorised Zend_Gdata_YouTube object.
$entry       = $yt->getVideoEntry($videoid);
// Sometimes you may need to get the full entry:
$fullentry   = $yt->getFullVideoEntry($videoid);
// Now you can get the description
$description = $entry->getVideoDescription();

Have a read up on the Retrieving of the documentation.
