OK, had a closer look at it and I can see how it is supposed to work (kind of). But I can't get it to work. It's supposed to somehow work with the standard TMediaPlayer. However, the main technique it uses (using mmioInstallIOProc) is applicable and I've found some sample code that I can use instead hopefully.

If I get it working, I'll post the working code to the list.

Cheers,
Phil.

well, from the 2sec i spent looking at it, it installs a custom io-handler to the
mediaplayer, then implements the iorequests using a memorystream.. there's
definately no file-based activity there. yes, you need to set a filename in the
mediaplayer, but thats only used to identify which named-memorystream to use as a
datasource..

  Hi Ben,

yes, found that before too. Works by writing to a temporary file as faras I can tell
by looking at the source code. As I said, I spent half aday scouring the internet.

Has no one done this before?

Phil.

1min on google found this:
http://www.wilsonc.demon.co.uk/misccomponents.htm"TMediaPlayerMemoryFile allows you
to play wave and AVI memory images using theregular Delphi TMediaPlayer component. 
You can create the memory images on-the-flyor load them from resources."looks like a
nice workaround to the mediaplayer limitation..no idea if it works.. --- Phil

I need to play a video clip (with audio) from a memory stream instead of
