New Features

  • Share on Twitter
    Now you can share your videos on Twitter! Just click the Share icon in a video to launch the Share module.
  • Channel Notifications
    Channel owners now have a new section in their channel settings to optionally receive emails for when someone posts a message to their shoutbox and for when someone subscribes to their channel. Adding moderators to your channel also now has an approval process, where both parties will receive emails when the request happens, and when the request is approved.
  • People Subscribed To Me
    There is now a new page within your My Contacts where you can see what users are subscribed to you and what they are subscribed to (likes, videos, and/or appearances).
  • Featured videos for your group
    Have any videos you want to show off in your group? You can easily add any 3 group videos to feature on your group homepage.
  • Featured videos on your profile page
    Have any videos you want to show off on your profile page? You can easily add any of your 3 public videos to feature on your profile page. Try it now.
  • Removing Video Thumbnails
    Everytime you upload a video, you get 12 thumbnails to choose from. Now, a month from the day you upload your video, we will automatically remove any unused thumbnails. But you will always be able to upload your own.
  • Improved Searching
    We've been waiting for this. The toolbar search is now much more accurate.
  • Login and Join Vimeo Lightbox
    Clicking on most login and join links will now trigger a lightbox overlay where you can quickly login or join Vimeo and stay on your current page.
  • Better referrer statistics
    Now we record every page that videos get embeded on, check it out in the stats section to the right of any video page.
  • Share on MySpace
    Everyone says they hate it, but everyone has a MySpace profile! We've added MySpace to the Sharing options.
  • Badge additions
    You can now add channels and albums to any Badge that you create. Yipeee!
  • Daily Email Update
    You can now receive a daily email full of what's happening in your Vimeo world. Sign up is located in your notifications settings.
  • Converting time during transcoding
    Ted and Casey added a nifty little feature that will display the time remaining to convert your video during uploads.
  • New Hubnut Behavoir
    From now on, the Hubnut will not auto-rotate when it is loaded on a page. This will only affect all newly created Hubnuts, not those that are currently used on other sites.
  • Search Channels
    Now you can FINALLY search for Channels. Use the 'Search' box in the top navigation bar, make sure its set on 'Channels', and search away!
  • Posting to Flickr
    It's back! You can once again post your videos to Flickr. You can also post albums. Do this by clicking on Share and navigating to the "Post this..." tab.
  • Expanded Tag Browsing
    Clicking a tag from a video will bring you to an improved tag browsing experience. Now you can browse videos with that tag in your videos, all videos, your contacts' videos and more. Vimeo members who use that tag most are also noted.
  • New Avatar Feature
    Clicking any "avatar" aka user portrait will bring up a menu of actions you can take regarding that user. Use this menu to add contacts, subscribe to videos, and send messages to users you see on Vimeo
  • Spam Filters
    We've recently rolled out some great new spam filters that we think will help keep spammers off of Vimeo. Of course its impossible to stop ALL spammers, so if you ever see any send an email to Help@vimeo.com and we'll take care of it.
  • Add Multiple Email Addresses
    Now you can add multiple email addresses to your account and then sign in with any of them using the same password. Just set one as your main address, verify it after we send you an email, and you're all set.
  • If you go to your albums in Vimeo you will notice a few new features: new settings interface, new album arrangement options, and most importantly, album password protection.

    Ever since we launched albums, we've heard this a lot:
    "Oh, please please please make private albums! I think this would be the best feature ever.... It's such a hassle having to send my friends & family members individual links for private videos. It would be so great to be able to send them one link to a private album. Then, they only have to enter the password one time & have access to tons of private videos in a single album... That would be so great!!!! Thanks again :) "

    You asked for it, and we listened.
    Password protected albums allow you to share multiple private videos at a time with your friends and family. Please remember that all the videos in the Album will be viewable when the user types in the password. Also, when you share this album with someone, Vimeo will automatically send the password with an email notification.

      very cool- so do we set the videos private and once we place them in the album it's just one password?

      It would be even better if we could have an option for the album to be VISIBLE to all, but password protected. That way, I could direct family & friends to my URL and not have to also email everyone permission to view the album via Vimeo. In my experience, people always lose the email/can't figure out how to login/nag me to just send them the video directly.
    • Speldosa 1 year ago
      I totaly agree with Tamar!

      videos OUTSIDE the private album will always default to their normal privacy controls. your public videos will be viewable to all. your private videos will be only viewable to those with access.

      videos INSIDE your password-protected album will be viewable to anyone with that password. and ANY videos inside that album (regardless their video-level privacy settings) will now be viewable to those with access to that album.

      in short, album-level privacy will take precedent over video-level privacy.

      I have a few proposals out to write a book, and it would be way cool to have on-line content available to supplant or back up/reinforce written material, but it would be material that we would not want available to the public, since it might be redundant with book content. Having a private album would be awesome so that only subscribers or registrants (buyers) could be sent a password. Would this be okay with you guys?
