Reading time is around minutes.

Vimeo was always regarded as the alternative to commercially more popular YouTube, but professionals and users who want high quality video materials have always favored him. The reason for this in the large number of cases was very high quality video player of this service. However, Vimeo believed that they have more room for improvement, so they decided to fundamentally rewrite the source code of the player. Creating it from scratch, they designed even faster and better looking player.

The new interface of Vimeo loads according to their claims, up to twice as fast as was the case before. And for all that is credited HTML5 whose capabilities are now fully exploited. Most Internet browsers to display such content do not need add-ons and plugins, and Vimeo will now work equally well on a desktop and on mobile devices.

The New Vimeo Player (You Know, For Videos) from Vimeo Staff on Vimeo.


Among the new options available to makers of video content, there is a possibility of adding subtitles and voice narration over the video, and the ability to easily purchase content "on demand" from the player.
