I have uploaded audio from my app into google drive.Now I want to download the audio file and also play the audio while it is getting downloaded into application.
Thanks
Query File.list() with restriction on filetype
Find webContentLink from Files resource. You'll get HTTP link for file
There are many libraries to stream audio/video with HTTP in iOS
If you are new to Drive API, check iOS quickstart

I'm working on a flutter application which uses the shared data from onedrive to play in the app but I'm having trouble getting the m4a file.
For instance, This is a onedrive link: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Aicuq23aphFzb_KQvr0anumY9Jk?e=NQZfXl. Now, I converted it to an api as given in here and I got this URL.
When I browse children.#content.downloadUrl I see a link which is a download link but I want a link with m4a file that will play in the browser itself. How am I suppose to achieve that ?
You will need an audio playing service in your app which can take an URL and play it for you handling all the internals like downloading, buffering etc.
Checkout this package: audio_service
I want to encode the audio file (mp3, mp4, m4a, ogg) for the streaming and want to play (I want to play encoded file smoothly) using the HTML5 player but I think HTML5 player.
So now what I am doing, I am uplaoding a file and econding this file on windows Azure Media Services using the preset "AAC Good Quality Audio". It encode the file with .mp4 file format and then I create SAS locator to run this file, it works well but the problem is that user can download it too which I don't want to allow.
If I create the OnDemandOrigin locator of the same encoded asset, it gives me 404 erroe. It means we can not play it.
Below are the steps that I have used to upload the file on Azure Media Services:
Created the empty assest.
Upload the file into the asset.
Then create the new task job to encode the audio file.
I have successfully encoded the file but when I try to generate the origin url it generate the url but when I browse the file I get
the error 404.
My queries:
"AAC Good Quality Audio" preset is the right for my task?
How can I restrict the user to download the file, if I use sas locator.
Is it possible to play the encoded file using origin locator.
Can I encode audio files for smooth streaming ? If I can then which player I should use to run the encoded file for all browsers, IOS devices and android devices.
If you want further details please feel free to ask me.
Awaiting your response.
Thanks
If your user is able to listen to the audio you're publishing, they will also be able to download the file. This you can not prevent. At best, you can make it difficult, but not impossible. More to the point, Media Services at its current incarnation has no way for you to do authorization of any kind, so the only tool you've got is time-bombed SAS locators.
The typical solution for this problem is to use DRM. Media Services supports PlayReady encryption, but you need to either have a PlayReady server or purchase it as a service (there is currently a service in the Azure Marketplace that provides PlayReady for a monthly price).
See following article how to protect assets with Microsoft PlayReady technology
Origin Locators are something you would use to publish a Smooth Stream or HLS asset. It is not useful for regular media files, as it is internally something equivalent to an IIS Media Services endpoint. For regular media files, you can just as well host them in Blob Storage -- and refer to them via the SAS locator.
There is currently no single format that will play across all devices and operating systems. You can get Smooth Streaming to work on most Windows and Mac computers (possibly Linux, too), either with Silverlight or with the Smooth Streaming Plugin for the Flash-based OSMF. For iOS devices you will need to encode to HLS and use the HTML5 video tag. Microsoft Media Platform will support MPEG-DASH, a recently ratified ISO/IEC standard for dynamic adaptive streaming over HTTP.More details how to use DASH preview feature can be found here
If you want smooth streaming for audio only, it looks like you will have to create a video asset with an empty video stream -- although there is a Uservoice request to add support for audio only in the future.
How to store locally m3u8 file with all chunks (.ts) from url in ios device.
If possible so how to do it?
I have developing functionality like.. Download .m3u8 file with chunks(.ts) in ios local storage then after modify .m3u8 and will play offline mode.
Please help me if have any kind of solution for above question.
The only way you can do this is to set up an HTTP server to serve the files locally after you've downloaded them.
Here are some related answers: Can IOS devices stream m3u8 segmented video from the local file system using html5 video and phonegap/cordova?
I was looking to code an iPhone application however, i was not sure if the following is possible :
Download an mp3 from an external site (through the application)
Once the mp3 has been downloaded, automatically add it to the usual iPod application, so it is visible in the user ipod songs list.
Same for videos too (download video[mp4] and directly transfer it to the usual videos app)
If the above is not possible, can i directly play the downloaded mp3 in my application ? What would i require to play an mp3 in my application ? Are there open source mp3 players available that i can integrate with my application ?
Thanks for any help, i really appreciate it.

No, that's not possible. The iPod library is not writable by third-party apps.
Same for videos too (download video[mp4] and directly transfer it to the usual videos app)
Not possible, either.
I built an offline Web app (at www.chirp.com) that caches itself when bookmarked on the desktop. Testing on the iPhone4 in airplane mode shows that the program runs without a network connection (except for Google map access of course). But the mp3 sound files do not play in this mode. Is there a problem with the audio tag when running in offline mode? The sound files are included in the manifest file, so they should be cached with the other files. Image files are still shown for instance.
How about if I use PhoneGap to create an iPhone app from this webapp? Will the sound files be included in the resulting binary load? In other words will the time delay, of online download of the small mp3 files each time the app is run and the sound is requested, be removed?
It is a bug or design decision on iOS to silently disallow caching of audio resources.
See this answer for more detail.
Using PhoneGap should work because the audio files will be present locally.
