Hi @PrinzFritz , The GridFS is implemented in all of the official drivers. I haven't actually used it so I haven't added it to the library. Right now you could just retrieve the underling Java objects from mongo4cf and use them to do the GridFS.

The goal of mongo4cf is to keep it as close to the core APIs as possible but with helpers and automatic conversion for ColdFusion typing. So if you want to write some functionality for working with GridFS I would be happy to review it for you.

I am unfortunately, too overwhelmed, that's also the reason why I use mongo4cf. mongo4cf is very easy to use. :o)

the idea for using gridfs is to save videos in the db , so I have no more files in the file system management, but only in the database

I just started looking at some examples of gridFS (http://www.mkyong.com/mongodb/java-mongodb-save-image-example/). It looks pretty straight forward. If I have some time I'll see if I can test it out and see how easy it would be to add to the mongo4cf.
