Vimeo playback is supported in browsers that can decode H. 264 videos in an HTML5 player.
If you are signed in on Vimeo, an go to your video settings, there should be an menu "Embed". Click this item and you will get various embedding options. At the right side of the window (below your profile icon) there will be a button Embed code . Clicking this will give you the Embed code.
With the introduction of HTML5, you can now place videos directly into the page itself. This makes it possible to have videos play on pages that are designed for mobile devices, as plugins like Adobe Flash Player don't work on Android or iOS. The HTML <video> element is used to embed video in web documents.
The minimum for HTML5 video is MP4 + WebM or Ogg (or both), using the MP4 version for Flash fallback. 2. For mobile support, one H. 264/MP4 output can take you a long way.
This Vimeo doc might help. This is working for us:
Get the video link from the Distribution tab when looking at the video settings in Vimeo: 
Add the video link to your HTML5 video tag:
<video width="320" height="240" controls> <source type="video/mp4" src="https://player.vimeo.com/external/*.hd.mp4?s=*&profile_id=*"> </video>

You will need to use our standard embed code unless you're a PRO member. Our embeds default to HTML5 and use it wherever possible.
