You can't play a video from a byte array using any standard method since most players assume you will provide a complete binary with the video media in the expected format. You would have to write your own video player in order for it to understand that your player wants to read from a byte array instead of an actual file. You are in for a world of pain if you choose to go that route. – Max Worg Jan 26 '15 at 13:24
