The sandbox ( https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:ApiSandbox#action=transcodereset&format=json&title=File%3AThe_Soilers_%281923%29.ogv&transcodekey=360p.ogv&token=You%20can%20get%20one%20of%20these%20through%20prop%3Dinfo ) indicates that I should be able to get a transcodereset token "through prop=info". However, prop-info does not give me a token but an error ( https://commons.wikimedia.org//w/api.php?action=query&prop=info&format=xml&intoken=transcodereset&titles=file%3AThe_Soilers_%281923%29.ogv )
action=transcodereset is supplied by Extension:TimedMediaHandler, reassigning.
Change 133405 had a related patch set uploaded by Brian Wolff: Add transcodereset to api token list https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/133405
Hmm, I could swear I tried the edit-token twice and it did not work back then. :(
Change 133405 merged by jenkins-bot: Fix documentation on token for transcodereset action https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/133405
The auto-generated documentation has been clarified. This should be deployed to WMF wikis with 1.24wmf6, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.24/Roadmap for the schedule.
