Hello,

Not directly, as far as I know.

I create a "playlist" of videos by creating an RSS (podcast) feed, then use Moodle's RSS block to list these videos. (see example.) I also convert this RSS feed into an HTML web page, that looks like this web page.

For my videos, I like to have several places, and ways, for students to access my videos.

Incidentally, my videos are stored on a Vimeo server.  I don't clutter up my Moodle's data area.  Of course, audio files are smaller than video file, but you should assess your own needs and decide where you want to keep your audio file.  (I don't feed audio files, just videos.)

Thank you Rick.

We also want to use vimeo for our videos. A pity they do not do audios as well. Thank you for the tip with the RSS feed.

You could always make videos out of your audios, using a simple title slide. Yep, a bit of work if you are using lots of audio files.

Since audio files are smaller, you might be able to host them on your website.
