The error sounds like your class contentstore.dao.MediaEntry is not 
compatible to the data you try to feed to it. Like it says it tries to 
set a property named "media" on this class which for some reason doesn't 
work. (wrong name? property doesn't exist?)

MediaEntry needs to either:
  - declare a writeable property "media"
  - use @JSONProperty to map another property to "media"
  - extends AbstractDynamicProperties which would enable it to receive 
any property
