It looks like this use case wasn't supported before. Here's a sample that works with the very latest version of the Google APIs PHP client (from https://code.google.com/p/google-api-php-client/source/checkout).

if ($client->getAccessToken()) {
  $videoPath = "path/to/foo.mp4";
  $snippet = new Google_VideoSnippet();
  $snippet->setTitle("Test title2");
  $snippet->setDescription("Test descrition");
  $snippet->setTags(array("tag1", "tag2"));
  $snippet->setCategoryId("22");

  $status = new Google_VideoStatus();
  $status->privacyStatus = "private";

  $video = new Google_Video();
  $video->setSnippet($snippet);
  $video->setStatus($status);

  $chunkSizeBytes = 1 * 1024 * 1024;
  $media = new Google_MediaFileUpload('video/mp4', null, true, $chunkSizeBytes);
  $media->setFileSize(filesize($videoPath));

  $result = $youtube->videos->insert("status,snippet", $video,
      array('mediaUpload' => $media));

  $status = false;
  $handle = fopen($videoPath, "rb");
  while (!$status && !feof($handle)) {
    $chunk = fread($handle, $chunkSizeBytes);
    $uploadStatus = $media->nextChunk($result, $chunk);
  }

  fclose($handle);
}
