AudioFileReader with Byte Array

[pvoelker]

I have a file format that embeds byte arrays of sound files.

I would like to AudioFileReader with a byte array. Is there currently a way to do this?

It would almost be nice if AudioFileReader had an override that took a stream instead of a file name. The audio format would need to be provided in this case...

Any thoughts? I would be willing to work on a PR with such an override for AudioFileReader?

MediaFoundationReader does not have an option to take a stream, so this gets a little more complicated. Tinkering around with a local clone to see if I can get something working...

Take a look at StreamMediaFoundationReader - someone already contributed that but haven't had time to work with it much myself, so not sure how reliable it is.

I think I have something that works. I am putting together test cases. Is there a preference on a branch name?

Or should I do a fork? Sorry, just want to make sure I am following your process...

I've created a PR: #929

This will allow me to load a memory stream with the byte data and pass it into AudioFileReader.

Let me know if there are any changes or suggestions you would like to see. I did not see documentation around AudioFileReader on it's own. I see it used in other examples. Didn't know if you wanted me to add anything to documentation...

Why has this not been accepted? It's a brilliant improvement, I need it too!
