Hi Jay,
We hope to have the videos up in Real Player format soon, which hopefully will be more Mac friendly. (We'll have MP3s as well, for those who want to listen on their iPods). As time permits, we'll also put up some YouTube clips.
We are currently exploring other formats to make video more easily accessible, but we're not quite there yet. Thanks for the kind words.
Thanks for putting these 2008 ACS videos up! I will heartily recommend them to many friends!!
May I ask, could something be done about the audio cutting out on Sen. Patrick Leahy's (D-VT.) address? [It happens at about 21:20, and then again at 23:34.]
Thank you, ACS!
Post A Comment / Question
Thanks for putting these videos up! There were so many great panels stacked up against each other that it's wonderful be to able to go back and see the ones we had to miss.
One request, though: would it be possible to convert them into a universal format such as QuickTime or whatever Youtube uses? As they currently stand people with Macs can't view them without heroics.
