Need more details on the Vid.ly error codes? These should answers you questions.
MessageCodes? ErrorCodes? What's the difference you may ask? MessageCodes give you particular feedback as to the status of the actions you have requested from the API. (We're talking about AddMedia, AddMediaLite, etc.) Error codes are more or less what you'll bump into if the system has an issue crunching on your files. They follow the same breakdown as the message codes, Common Errors (I), AddMedia codes (II), DeleteMedia codes (III) and GetStatus codes (IV).
