Right now im doing this but getting errors:
@service.run
def upload_image( camera_uuid ):
    query = (db.cameras.macaddress == camera_uuid )
    camera_id = db(query).select(db.cameras.id)[0]
    db.videos[0]={ 'camera' : camera_id, 'file' : db.videos.file.store
(request.body, 'upload.flv') }
    return True

The problem is that its generating 0 size files.  But the file is
correct, and is created in the database correctly.  Did i miss a step?

I am using the following curl line:
curl -T ~/test.flv 
http://web2py.geiseri.com/HomeCentral/default/call/run/upload_image/camera1

I feel like im close...
