using the api against /videos/ID I get a bunch of links, select the corret format and them i'm good to play on my own website.
But it's slow, i'm not on USA and it's slow for my customers.
(I'm a vimeo PRO subscriber)
Recently, checking a similar website, I've noticed that their urls are generates like
https://13-lvl3-pdl.vimeocdn.com/01/1924/4/....
And mine are generated like
https://fpdl.vimeocdn.com/vimeo-prod-skyfire-std-us/01/4067/6/...
The first one, that i could not discover how to get on my own videos, is really faster and lower latency.
Any light on this would be very appreciated.
At the bottom of the player, click inside the blue box that appears around the play bar. In the menu that pops up, you can toggle the controls and other elements you want to appear here: the play bar, volume control, fullscreen button, the Vimeo logo, or a custom logo.
A CDN is simply a network that delivers content — like video — at users request. It makes it faster and easier to load content and promotes a great experience. For businesses that are new to live streaming video content, the right CDN configuration can positively impact your stream and help get your message across.
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.
Upload your custom logo via account settings You can upload a custom logo to your account by clicking your profile photo in the upper right corner of the Vimeo site, then selecting Settings. On the left side, select Videos > Player logos. From here you can click Upload new logo to your account.
These urls are dynamically generated on the server. There is no programatic way that you can change which CDN url you receive.
Please reach out to vimeo.com so they can dig more into why it performs so slowly for you.
After upload and process video by vimeo it generates HD,SD and HLS links. Sometime speed depends on many factors like hosting environment, player used for stream videos,Internet bandwidth etc etc.
So first check following things:
1) Are you using third party player for stream your videos?
2) Are you using HLS video link for stream video?
3) What is your hosting environment in terms of server response time?
Some Suggestion to achieve better video streamming:
1) Get best Hosting plan which has better server response time.
2) Use vimeo default player for stream videos.
3) If you are using third party player than use HLS vimeo generated link with Third party HLS player.
