I need to play media files (audio, video) in CF (in my app or media
player). Media files will be stored in my own app running on server or
MS SQL in better case. Do you have any idea how to make it? Is it
better and even possible to store video files on MS SQL and play them
on Pocket PC? Thanks a lot
 
Is it possible? Of course. Is it easy? Of course not. You'll have to
handle streaming in a format that the media player already understands or
you'll have to create your own codec and arrange for the media player to use
that to get the data. I'm not sure that storing huge binary 'files' in SQL
Server makes sense either...
