For completeness sake.  I thought I would share the answer.  I realised that 
this was a good problem when I saw others were complaining about the same thing 
with no answers, it turns out that when capturing the video, iOS stores these 
files in the /tmp directory and does not remove them immediately or when app is 
restated or even the phone is restarted for some reason.  So I cleared this out 
also after the video is marked for upload and the problem is completely 
resolved.

Thanks guys for your assistance.

Regards
Damien
