[Clarification] deleteListingVideo not really deleting, but changing video_state

[baahar]

I observed that deleting a video does not really delete the video for a listing. It is still returned when getListingVideos is called, only the video_state attribute is "inactive".

Is this the intended behavior?

I have the same issue. I believe this is a bug.

deleteListingVideo needs to actually delete the video.

I am running into issues where I get an error saying I have reached the maximum number of videos that can be associated with a listing even after "deleting" all the videos. This is very frustrating and prevents any future updates to the listing's video.

This should be categorized as a bug.

I know Etsy has a "rate limit" so to speak on video uploading. I think it only allows a certain number of videos to be uploaded per hour or per day for any given listing/user. You will have to ask them about this as I don't have the exact details. I just remember it had come up before. It may or may not have anything to do with your issue, but something to keep in mind.

I have same issue, i got a random limit in videos, and after deleting all of them I got 0 videos in GET /videos but then the POST /videos is getting "maximum limit reached"
