Upload videos in Laravel project - php

Question

I am having trouble when I try to upload video/movie to my site. It doesn't save the video in the database, but it makes a folder 'movie' in my files with that video in it like it's supposed to. Also I edited my php.ini file for size requirements and session that I made says that it uploaded. Here is my code
View:
<div class="col-md-6">
{!! Form::open(['method'=>'POST', 'action'=> 'MovieController#store', 'files' => true]) !!}
<div class="form-group">
{!! Form::label('movie_name', 'Enter Movie Name:') !!} <br>
{!! Form::text('movie_name', null, ['class'=>'form-control'])!!}
</div>
<div class="form-group">
{!! Form::label('uploaded_path', 'Select Movie:') !!} <br>
{!! Form::file('uploaded_path', null, ['class'=>'form-control'])!!}
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
{!! Form::label('actor_id', 'Actors:') !!}
{!! Form::select('actor_id[]', $actors, null, ['class'=>'form-control js-example-basic-multiple', 'multiple' => 'multiple']) !!}
</div>
<div class="form-group">
{!! Form::label('category_id', 'Category:') !!}
{!! Form::select('category_id[]', $categories, null, ['class'=>'form-control js-example-basic-multiple', 'multiple' => 'multiple']) !!}
</div>
MovieRequest:
public function rules()
{
return [
'movie_name' => 'required|max:255',
'uploaded_path' => 'mimetypes:video/avi,video/mpeg,video/mp4|required'
];
}
Controller:
public function store(MovieRequest $request)
{
DB::beginTransaction();
try {
if ($request->hasFile('uploaded_path')) {
$filenameWithExt = $request->file('uploaded_path')->getClientOriginalName();
$filename = pathinfo($filenameWithExt, PATHINFO_FILENAME);
$extension = $request->file('uploaded_path')->getClientOriginalExtension();
$fileNameToStore = $filename. '_'.time().'.'.$extension;
$path = $request->file('uploaded_path')->storeAs('public/movies/', $fileNameToStore);
} else {
$fileNameToStore = 'novideo.mp4';
}
$movie = new Movie;
$movie->movie_name = $request->input('movie_name');
$movie->uploaded_path = $fileNameToStore;
$movie->actors()->attach($request->input('actor_id'));
$movie->categories()->attach($request->input('category_id'));
$movie->save();
DB::commit();
} catch (\Exception $e) {
DB::rollBack();
}
Session::flash('success', 'A movie was successfully UPLOADED in the database!');
return redirect()->route('movies.index');
}

Don’t forget to add:
enctype="multipart/form-data"
to movie field.
