Getting video upload date with Zend Gdata Youtube API - php

Question

I'm trying to get a list of videos for a specific user with all the details for the video (title, desc., date, tags...)
I can get pretty much everything I need, but can't figure out how to get the upload date.
I tried using getVideoRecorded() and getRecorded(), but both return nothing.
I can't seem to find anything related to this on Google, all I can find is class references which tell me that I have to use getVideoRecorded or getRecorded, but nothing more.
Am I doing something wrong? how can I get the upload date?
Current code:
$authenticationURL= 'https://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin';
$httpClient =
Zend_Gdata_ClientLogin::getHttpClient(
$username = $yt_username,
$password = $yt_password,
$service = 'youtube',
$client = null,
$source = '', // a short string identifying your application
$loginToken = null,
$loginCaptcha = null,
$authenticationURL);
$yt = new Zend_Gdata_YouTube($httpClient);
$feed = $yt->getUserUploads($yt_username);
foreach($feed as $item)
{
echo "<div>";
echo "<h4>title: " . $item->getVideoTitle() . "</h4>";
echo "<p>id: " . $item->getVideoId() . " | ";
echo "upload date: " . $item->getVideoRecorded() . "</p>";
echo "<p>description: " . $item->getVideoDescription() . "</p>";
echo "<p>tags: " . implode(", ", $item->getVideoTags()) . "</p>";
echo "</div>";
echo "<hr>";
}

You can try and extract the < published > or < updated > tags from the following xml:
