If it's asking you to verify, it might be your IP address and not your account itself - does it also happen when you try to view it on mobile or something?

I'd reach out to their support team and let them know, it might just be some kind of block.

Do you‘ve an unsolved music strike or an other claim on that video?

Hello, and welcome to r/Vimeo! This is a subreddit for the Vimeo community, but it is not a support forum. If you are looking for support, please check our Help Center: https://help.vimeo.com/

If the site is built with WordPress, check out:

VideoPress US$10/month (or so): https://videopress.com

Or perhaps self hosting (ie- uploading an MP4 to your Wordpress Media Library). That and a bunch of other embedding ideas are mentioned in this WP Engine blog post: https://wpengine.com/resources/wordpress-video-embed-how-to/

I don’t understand why frame.io doesn’t offer this. People are BEGGING for another option that’s not price or Vimeo

Wistia

I second Wistia

I came across Gumlet while conducting my own research to move away from Vimeo. Ended up giving it a shot, and it’s been solid so far.

Embedding was easy, the streaming quality's been reliable, and it doesn’t feel as restrictive. I also like that I can tweak the player to match my site’s look. Not perfect, but it just does what I need without getting in the way. Might be worth a look if Vimeo’s not cutting it for you.

This is a cookie issue (PECR in the UK, ePrivacy Directive in the EU), not a GDPR issue. You need consent via the cookie banner before allowing it to track users (so blocking the video before consent is given).

Alternatively, enable the Do Not Track flag in the embed URL. https://complianz.io/embedding-vimeo-videos-privacy-friendly/

Taking into account cases like Fashion ID and Google Fonts, embedding third party resources on your website necessarily discloses personal data such as the visitor's IP address to that third party. This is an even more fundamental problem than potential tracking cookies.

In general, there are two paths towards compliant embeds:

• You have a suitable legal basis for disclosing visitor personal data to the third party data controller. In the majority of cases, this will be "consent". For example, the embed could be replaced with a placeholder that explains the privacy implications of loading the third party content, and offers a consent button which would then load the actual content. This is the approach typically chosen for YouTube videos, social media posts, Google Maps, …

• The embed provider is not their own data controller, but acts as a "data processor" on your behalf. Then, you're not "sharing" visitor's personal data with the embed provider, which greatly simplifies the question of legal basis. But this requires signing a Data Processing Agreement with the processor, and many services don't want to do this, or only offer it as an enterprise-level feature on their premium plans.

Unfortunately, it seems that Vimeo does not offer a data processing agreement that covers the embed player: https://help.vimeo.com/hc/en-us/articles/18332128580241-Does-Vimeo-offer-a-Data-Processing-Agreement

But it could be worth contacting their sales/support in case that FAQ isn't up to date.

It's not a WP issue. This is from Vimeo:

“Sorry, Because of its privacy settings, this video cannot be played here”

If you’re seeing this error in the player, the video you are watching has domain-level privacy enabled. Learn more at 'Set your video's viewing privacy before uploading'.  The video’s owner can adjust the domains where a video can appear within the “Where can this video be embedded?” section of the embed settings page.

If the domain is listed in your video settings page, but the error is still appearing, the domain specified in your address bar may be different from the domain sent to the Vimeo player. In these cases, a privacy error may appear. Contact a web developer to confirm if there is anything in your site's HTML code that could be blocking the referrer from reaching our player iframe.

I found the video tag can be wonky, I usually like to Vimeo if the client has an account. It’s the most professional looking and gives you some decent customization options.

Do not auto play unless you want to piss off users.

Vimeo. Auto play isnt supported by browsers anyway unless you mute the video.

Youtube iframe is rubbish but free and will make the page heavy and increase loading time.

Depends on which web builder your using and how you want the video to displayed. Every web builder and custom coded sites allow for embedding a video. This shouldn't effect site speed (Unless you're using YT).

YouTube will show suggested videos to the user and there's no way of removing the YouTube logo from the video player. Vimeo allows you to remove their logo but it's fairly pricey.

Zeacon has been our dev shops go to - our clients love it cause it's fast, white labeled, and increases website visitors + conversions.

<video> is for self hosted video files, <iframe> would be to embed from somewhere else (youtube, vimeo). For most purposes i would go with self hosted.

I like <video>(self hosted). It gives more control.

I've just done a quick test with a Vimeo URL and it was going to embed without any issue - what was the Vimeo URL you were trying to embed?

My link stopped working because I disabled embedding on Vimeo when I checked to make sure downloading the video was disabled. I re-enabled embedding everywhere on Vimeo and the link was restored. It may have been disabled for three days, not good!

Enable downloads but password protect.

Mine seems to be working. If you don't mind me asking, why did you disable downloading? Programmers prefer to be able to download the film.

that's why i didn't have any view for 2 weeks......that's so bad

Mine is working just fine.

There is a nice plugin called Vimeography.

You can use the Kadence Advanced Gallery Block with Vimeo embeds, but if you want full control, the Vimeo API is your best bet. You can pull videos dynamically and style them however you want with custom CSS inside Kadence.
