Answer 1

you need to add two slash in path.
Check following query.it’s work with me.
use this

INSERT INTO GAME values (3, 'Termonator2',LOAD_FILE("C:\\Users\\Public\\Videos\\Sample Video\\test.mpg"));   

instead of

INSERT INTO GAME  VALUES(3, "Termonator2", 
LOAD_FILE("C:\Users\Public\Videos\Sample Videos"));  

enjoy…..
