Playing Audio from a Filestream using MCI

[Gidi Morris via .NET 247]

Hi,

Is there a way to play audio using MCI (I preffer MCI, but if you know of any others I'll be greatful) from a Filestream?

I mean, I have a filestream to an audio file, can I play the audio? I can't access the file directly, so just using the MCI's MCI_OPEN command won't work.

This code should work after doing some changes (reading the byte array
from the filestream instead of loading it from a resource):

This might be just what you're looking for. A DotNet class wrapper for MCI.
