I have set the privacy status when uploading video to YouTube. I believe it similar for updating the video also.

I didn't test the following code. But I hope you can give a shot.

First you retrieve the video status property.

$listResponse = $youtube->videos->listVideos('status', array('id' => $videoId));

Then you get the video status property

$video = $listResponse[0];
$videoStatus = $video['status'];

Then you set the video status. Valid values are 'private', 'public', 'unlisted'.

$videoStatus->privacyStatus = 'public';

Finally you update the status & then video

$video->setStatus($videoStatus);
$updateResponse = $youtube->videos->update('status', $video);

Hope this will help you
