Hi all,
I'm trying to send an MP3 file from a TIdTCPServer to a TIdTCPClient while 
it playing.
Could somebody help me?
The final goal is to hear the sound remotely from the client of an MP3 
stored on the server while the file is transferring.

Thanks for any kind of help.

Have you already written the code to transfer the file ?

Not yet completely.
After the client request it, the server send a Stream to the client.
The client receive the Stream.
When the Stream terminated to transfer, the mp3 is played, but this is not 
what I need, I would hear the mp3 playing while download the stream like 
Media player or similar do.

Have you some tips?

You have to send the MP3 data in small chunks, such as with
Read/WriteBuffer(), and then pass each chunk to the audio system as soon as
it arrives.

Thanks Remy for the answer.
I supposed to have to do that and I'm trying to write this.
But what about the "audio system" as you called it?

Thanks again for the help

Working with the audio system is beyond the scope of this newsgroup.  It has
nothing to do with socket programming.  Please read the Win32 API Multimedia
documentation for working with audio, and then direct any questions about it
to the "borland.public.cppbuilder.multimedia" or
"borland.public.cppbuilder.nativeapi" newsgroup.
