In my application I have sent an audio 3gp file to the server and then using PHP I have stored it in a MySQL database as a BLOB. Is there a way to use a MediaPlayer in android to play an audio stream that is read directly from a BLOB? I know that I could read a BLOB and save it in a filesystem and then play it in android without downloading it but I would like to do not save any files in the server if possible. Thanks for the advises.
Presuming that MediaPlayer will let you feed it a URL, you could stream it via a PHP script that fetches the BLOB and echoes it to the output all without ever saving it to the filesystem or Android device. If your PHP script supports HTTP
