You tell us. Potentially employ Wireshark to see what gets transferred over the network, if the HTTP Live Headers aren't enough.

    Ok, so here's the dump of relevant packets from Wireshark:

    Here I'm trying to upload a video called Export.avi. I can definitely see that it's sending something, but not sure how to duplicate this POST request in Perl in order to actually send along the file.

      HTTP::Request? Possibly even HTTP::Request::FromTemplate, although I've never tested it with POST data. Possibly you can also trick WWW::Mechanize into allowing you to set the Content-Type of the file. WWW::Mechanize not setting the Content-Type might or might not be construed as a bug.
