MediaPlayer, playing from memory rather than via FileName ... ??
Hi,
I use Borland C++ Builder 4.
I want to play a MediaFile with NO filename.
E.g. Now, the component runs when a Filename is delivered via a String object.
I'd like (if possible) to play from memory ???
Is that possible ??
If yes ... How ???

Isn't there then any other possibility to do this ?? Maybe inherit from the TMediaPlayer Component and change functionality of some sort ... not that I know how to do that.

Hi,
Sorry, have been on a weekend (all weekend ... far far away from my PC).
Before I close this up I was wondering if following couldn't be done (haven't tried it yet myself) :
Inherit from TMediaPlayer.
IF TMediaPlayer uses the TFileStream component, I possibly could re-write it with a TMemoryStream object ????
Any thoughts on this ??
Also ... Can I access the TMediaPlayer source code ?? (How ??)
Is it in C or Pascal ???
(I use Borland C++ Builder 4, Enterprise edition)

MCI Api interface! But MCI functions
may works only with files/drives/..
but not with memory.
