What constitutes a "finish" in stats? If they stop a few seconds before the end, is it still a finish?
Rebecca Tharp Staff
I'm not sure what you mean by "finish." Here's some more info on stats that might be helpful though: vimeo.com/help/faq/stats#loadvsplay.

One of the advanced stats options is Loads vs. Plays vs. Finishes. I'm trying to see what the definition of the "Finishes" is since they are so low. I would like to be able to tell how actually watch the video more than just a few seconds or minutes, but I think many who essentially watch the whole video would click out before the absolute end.

Ah, yes, sorry! Brain fart. A "finish" does mean that the viewer must watch all the way until the very end of the video. If the video is stopped even a few seconds before the end, it will not count as a "finish." Hope this helps! Let me know if you have further questions.
