I’ve felt for some years that our massive treasure of media was just waiting to be opened via a more accessible interface. Our team has made massive strides in this direction, with media that you can click and play whether audio or video, throughout the many thousands of hours of files. This is becoming a place you can camp in for weeks. I hope you have a look and try it out.

I recently wrote a plugin for a program called Playon to get the video selection here at Mises.org through your DNLA device (Xbox, PS3, Wii, VuNow, etc) and onto your home television. It is still in its infancy, as it was my first such project and I just released it about a week ago. If anyone is interested, you can find the plugin here: http://www.playonplugins.com/index.php?topic=2066.0.
The Playon server is ~$40, depending on whether or not they have any promotions going. There is a 14-day fully functional trial available as well.
Also, if I am stepping on any toes with this plugin or any of its elements (such as the images), please do let me know.
Any chance of finding recordings of Salamanca there?
Quick question
Why do you have a picture of the book Ethics of Money Production for the audiobook collection when the book is not in audio form? At least I can’t seem to find it.
Jeremiah: Chapter 13 (“The Cultural and Spiritual Legacy of Fiat Inflation”) is available in audio form.
I’ve always found that the audio files of lectures are much more “readable” to me than text. There is just so much in inflection and tone of voice that comes through, a color that adds to the plain meaning of the words.
What is a Rothbard lecture without the cackle? :^)
I very much appreciate the availability of the lectures and seminars as given at Mises University. I constantly refer people to those lectures when discussing particular subjects.
Love the new format!
I hope the Mises Institute takes this opportunity to add more media files to the archive. You guys obviously have more audio and video presentations from past Institute seminars and events you can upload.
The Media page looks great Mr. Tucker and perhaps you are still working on functionality but when I twice attempted to access the link to
The Historical Setting of the Austrian School of Economics
Ludwig von Mises’ essay, “The Historical Setting of the Austrian School of Economics” read by Gennady Stolyarov II.
,the following error occurred.
AppName: iexplore.exe AppVer: 8.0.6001.18702 ModName: flash10c.ocx
ModVer: 10.0.32.18 Offset: 002f46da
Works nicely.
I especially like that individual pieces of media now get their individual page, such that I can bookmark them or link them.
Thanks!
I dont see a substantial difference between this one and the old one
Can’t tell much of a difference… need more eye candy… need “featured video” like the mockups had.
