Hello,
Is it possible to consume audio files in streaming mode with DFS or REST?
In order to achieve this requeriment, shall I mandatory need to use Audio Video Transformation Services?
Thanks

As long as you configure streaming server, update base_url of the streaming store, etc, you will be able to stream any content stored on that store, back to the client. That will work for both: audio and video content. AVTS is not a pre-requisite but it might help.
Derek,
I made it worked without a streaming server.
I got the mfile_url('mp3', -1, '') value through a query to get the object path in the store. Then I built the full path adding the server network path and I added it to a Player and it worked.
The problem is that in this way, I need a user with permissions on the store to stream that Content.
I guess that your suggestion of using a Streaming Server is much more secure. I will try it.
I'm glad to hear you made it work, however, this really isn't streaming in the full sense of delivering audio/video content. You're just downloading content over HTTP - it may look like you're streaming it, but it's rather a progressive download. When you setup a streaming server you'll be able to leverage actual streaming protocol (ie. non-HTTP) and be able to better leverage your client player - including ability to cue to a specific time within your clip, etc. Actual control will depend on your streaming server and client. Hope that helps.
Thank you Derek.
