None of the videos I have embedded on my site are displaying. Dunno if it's a late night glitch but I'll check back in a couple hours to see if it's just my connection.

Inês Casaca 5 months ago

I have the same problem.
My video doesn't work here: on-cine.com/
The vimeo link: vimeo.com/5774976

I read that my url must be in vimeo lists, so it wont be banned. Can someone explain me how i do that?
Kyotoweb 5 months ago

It seems we all got the same problem.
We should just wait for a staff member to fix that ;)

BOYCOTT VIMEO. Now they are blocking my own videos from being embedded in Blogger. Without US Vimeo is nothing. I've deleted my videos from their servers. 'F' Vimeo!, I hope this problem destroys their rep.
Amanda 5 months ago

Yeah, Kytoweb has it right - seems everyone is having the same issue, something must have gone wrong and needs a'fixin.
Amanda 5 months ago

Yeah some checking of other sites that rely heavily on Vimeo shows that they too have issues. For example, SvD - Swedens national newspaper - has a series of interviews up with Vimeo - and all of those are now displaying that same "sorry" message. I'm pretty sure that they have a pro-account.

See example:

Where is the Staff ? ^^
Amanda 5 months ago

Nobodies videos are displaying, someone must have tripped over a switch at Vimeo and I am sure they're working to fix it. Nothing you can do on your end but wait.
The Alchemist 5 months ago

Same problem no external video embeds are working. I've checked a few other sites using vimeo and they appear to have the same problem.

The embed is there but has the default vimeo image saying "sorry video cannot be played on this site".

I guess it's a technical glith not depending on privacy or embedding issues...
Hopefully will be solved soon!

it's just a global problem, not user related or video related. We should stop complaining since I suppose they're already working on it!

Daniel Fairbairn 5 months ago

im having the exact same problem, i'm not a plus member, but my videos worked fine on my site before danielfairbairn.com/home.html, under the guideline;

"Exceptions: Independent production companies, authors, musicians, non profits, churches, artists, and actors may show or promote the work they have created, anyone else cannot."

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Meanwhile VIRB have just launched some 'exciting new features' that have completely obliterated the headers on their users' legacy sites.

Why do they keep fixing stuff that's working fine..?
Liam Rustill 5 months ago

Same with me, if they aren't back up by tonight I'm embedding them all from youtube and taking them off vimeo.

at least you didn't pay for Plus account. You might want to consider Exposure Room - more "artists" friendly then YT.

Embedding has been down for a couple of hours already. It would be great if someone from Vimeo came with some information...and an estimate about when things will be back to normal.
Marc M 5 months ago

Same here, I can't embed this video in forums. I could not also see it within the vimeo site until today:
