Staff Blog / Global Settings and Unlimited HD Embedding
-
by dalas verdugo
July 22nd, 2010Hey everybody!
We've got more great news for you today. One aspect of Vimeo that we know you love is the extensive control you have over how and where your videos are seen. In the past, it could be a little time consuming to check each of your videos and make sure that the settings were exactly the way you wanted them. Well those days are over, because we now have a way for you to change the Privacy settings for all of your videos on one page!
Set a password for all of your videos; choose to only let your contacts view your videos; allow or prevent people from downloading the source files; control who can comment on all of your videos. All at once. And if you're a Plus member you'll find all the advanced options here too. Make all of your videos mobile-ready; restrict playback to certain sites; hide your videos on Vimeo; allow HD embedding. You can do this for all of your videos, or just apply it to the videos you upload from now on. It's all right here on your new Video Preferences page.
Speaking of HD embedding, that brings us to our other exciting news. Yeah, there's more. We've done some serious number crunching (maybe even used a slide-rule), and decided that it makes the most sense to do away with the limits on HD embedding that Plus members were previously restricted by. Plus members no longer have to ration their precious HD embed plays! You're free to spread your beautiful HD videos far and wide. Unlimited HD embedding is REAL.
We will be automatically refunding anyone who purchased extra HD embed plays within the past 30 days. So that's extra cash back to spend on a party celebrating your new, unlimited existence!
We're very proud of the progress the Vimeo Plus service has made over the past two years. With no limits on total storage space, bandwidth, duration, and now HD embeds, along with video encoding that aims for the highest quality, is there any doubt that Vimeo is the absolute best site to host your videos? Check out the chart below to see how much the Plus service has improved in a short time. We only plan to keep making it better, so stick around and bring all your friends!
Love,
The Vimeo Folks

I always tell my friends that Vimeo is like YouTube, except it WORKS, it's higher quality, and isn't riddled with 12 year olds!
Great changes, great site, great balls of fire!
NOT, "like" YouTube, I meant that in the shallow aspect of a website that has video.....and that's it.
VIMEO RULES.
I will get a plus

We'd love to have that capability but right now we're not satisfied with the reliability of video file upload technology for anything over 2GB. We're always looking to improve though and we will push the envelope when it's feasible.
Great job Vimeo Staff! Vimeo is deffo the best video hosting site on the internet!
What a great idea vimeo ,what's next? Unlimit the groups one can add a new video to reach more viewers ?
Thanks so much for this one and beyond that for all that you guys do and have done over the years in giving me a platform that allows me to show my work in the best possible light.
I was nothing less than amazed when I first stumbled on Vimeo and started using it some years ago and I'm still amazed today.
Thanks for everything.

The video preferences page seems to have some issues - I tried to apply a global cc license change and it looks like it dumps a debug array into the top of the page:
"got uploader 1886087 clip privacy: anybody clip id: 12752844 check transcoding. got uploader 1886087 user purgatory: should delete: false should release: false...."
The full dump is about 10x as long. First time I tried it didn't apply the changes - second time it did.
P.R.E.T.T.Y. P.L.E.A.S.E. W.I.T.H. A. C.H.E.R.R.Y. O.N. T.O.P.......
bum deal :(
I pay by the byte for my internet experience. Unlike city folk, a country dwelling citizen has an unpredictable connection speed. I've been here for more than two years and seen many things with Vimeo, but I can honestly say that what I have seen lately is a step backwards in internet technology.
Please - If It Is Not Broken - Dont Fix It....
to this channel: vimeo.com/channels/timelapseinhd
...and then, if the video is appropriate for the channel you try and add it - well, "Sorry. The owner of this video does not allow this video to be added to other collections."
So you decide to leave a comment: "Only Ojo Rojo's contacts can comment on this video."
hmmn, you don't understand why this is all frustrating then...?
Looks like I had better give up on Vimeo then Eh ?
