Not answering your question but why do you want to store the video
frames themselves in the db?  My rule of thumb (and, obviously, it's
just a rule of thumb) is to avoid defining blob types whenever
possible.  My preferred solution is to store the blob as a file and a
pointer to the blob in the db (generally just the filename).  Another
way of asking the question: what do you get by storing the blob in the
database?
