Automatic Vimeo conversions

Once SmartVideo is installed on your site and Vimeo auto-conversion is enabled (see "How do I turn automatic conversions on?" below), SmartVideo begins scanning for Vimeo videos. Any videos found will be displayed in our clean, fast-loading SmartVideo player automatically, requiring no extra work on your part.

When a page with a video loads for the first time, it tells SmartVideo to fetch that video, encode it, and store it on our network. From then on, the video is hosted on our global delivery network and served via our accelerated playback technology.

How do I turn automatic conversions on?

Automatic Vimeo conversions can be enabled in your installation. If you have downloaded our SmartVideo plugin for WordPress, turn the feature on by visiting the Settings tab and checking Auto-convert YouTube & Vimeo videos (as shown below).

If the box is not checked, simply check it and click Save Settings.

If you have pasted our SmartVideo snippet into your site's header using one of our other installation methods, just make sure the snippet includes:

autoreplace: {
            vimeo: true
               }

If it doesn't, we recommend using our configuration tool to regenerate the script properly.
