Thanks... with your help i got solution, to convert the bytes to file(audio/video), see below code.

private void convertBytesToFile(byte[] bytearray) {
    try {

        File outputFile = File.createTempFile("file", "mp3", getCacheDir());
        outputFile.deleteOnExit();
        FileOutputStream fileoutputstream = new FileOutputStream(tempMp3);
        fileoutputstream.write(bytearray);
        fileoutputstream.close();

    } catch (IOException ex) {
        ex.printStackTrace();
    }
}

**File outputFile = File.createTempFile("file", "mp3", getCacheDir());

outputFile contains the path, use that to play your audio/video file**
