I want to play a large video using http on an android tablet.
I don't want to save that viedo on device. That is, if the large video data received by the web service is in little chunks, I don't want to save that binary data and later play the video. I want play the video as it downloads.
Is this possible?
Yes, it is called buffering.
ReplyDeleteYou can read this tutorial. Basically you will need the MediaPlayer class, then set the url of your video as the data source, and MediaPlayer would do all the complicated stuff.
