I wanted to use getimagesize() on .SWF files stored in the database as blob data and couldn't find a simple solution, so I created my own.
I am releasing this code under the MIT license to save everyone some time:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
PHP Blob Data As File Stream v1.0 (C) 2012 Alex Yam <[email protected]>
This code is released under the MIT License.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Summary]
A simple class for PHP functions to read and write blob data as a file
using a stream wrapper.
Particularly useful for running getimagesize() to get the width and
height of .SWF Flash files that are stored in the database as blob data.
Tested on PHP 5.3.10.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Usage Example]
//Include
include('./blob_data_as_file_stream.php');
//Register the stream wrapper
stream_wrapper_register("BlobDataAsFileStream", "blob_data_as_file_stream");
//Fetch a .SWF file from the Adobe website and store it into a variable.
//Replace this with your own fetch-swf-blob-data-from-database code.
$swf_url = 'http://www.adobe.com/swf/software/flash/about/flashAbout_info_small.swf';
$swf_blob_data = file_get_contents($swf_url);
//Store $swf_blob_data to the data stream
blob_data_as_file_stream::$blob_data_stream = $swf_blob_data;
//Run getimagesize() on the data stream
$swf_info = getimagesize('BlobDataAsFileStream://');
var_dump($swf_info);
----------------------------------------------------------------------
[Usage Output]
array(5) {
[0]=>
int(159)
[1]=>
int(91)
[2]=>
int(13)
[3]=>
string(23) "width="159" height="91""
["mime"]=>
string(29) "application/x-shockwave-flash"
