See the examples. load_file and cgi_image do exactly what you're asking.

I can understand putting small images in a database, but *video*? Are
you sure you know what a database is designed for? A typical digital
video file is a multi-gigabyte block of unnormalized data. Read any
database design book if you don't know why that is bad. Even if you
don't care about that, how will you query it? I guarantee you:

mysqlpp::Row row = query.execute();

will blow up on almost any current machine when one of the fields holds
a few gigabytes.

My company makes digital video servers, and we keep the videos in the
regular filesystem, using the database server just to store information
about the videos.
