I'm trying to embed a Vimeo video into a webpage, using the HTML5 video element, despite Vimeo's embed code using an iframe. I want to use the video element so that I can create a fully responsive webpage including videos, but I'm having trouble without using HTML5. I've tried a couple of tools, most successfully using fitvidsjs, but the responsiveness isn't 100% (black bars etc..).
Is it at all possible to use the HTML5 video element with a Vimeo video (i.e. without an iframe)? Could the Vimeo API help me achieve this?

Simply put, if you want to embed Vimeo without iFrame, you will first need to click on the share button of the video. From there, a window will pop up, and you can click on the Show options button to use the old embed code choice to proceed with the project.
3 Steps To Embed a Vimeo VideoStep 1: Click on the share button that sits under the video. Step 2: Copy the Embed code. Step 3: Paste the Embed code into your website.
The HTML <video> element is used to embed video in web documents. It may contain one or more video sources, represented using the src attribute or the source element. The <video> element is supported by all modern browsers. However, not all browsers support the same video file format.
When logged into Vimeo, go to Settings, click on the Embed tab, and select Always Hide on the Player Preferences. This will prevent any controls from showing on top of the video. You can remove everything except a small rollover play button.
You can use below code for display in html 5
<object width="640" height="360">
<param name="movie" value="http://player.vimeo.com/external/85569724.sd.mp4?s=43df5df0d733011263687d20a47557e4"/>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"/>
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"/>
