Advanced Video Provider: Vimeo

Overview

# Top

The LifterLMS Advanced Videos Vimeo integration adds the ability to use Vimeo embedded videos within LifterLMS lessons to require video progression, customize the video player, and more.

Vimeo is very secure, providing you with the ability to restrict where your videos are embedded, but it has limited customization options for free accounts.

Use Vimeo Pro or greater to take advantage of all the options available from LifterLMS Advanced Videos.

Provider Settings

In addition to powering the course progression settings provided by LifterLMS Advanced Videos, the Vimeo integration has additional video player customization settings.

 

Setting: Disable Controls

Disables the default Vimeo interface and enables the “Minimalist” video player interface provided by LifterLMS Advanced Videos.

When this setting is enabled, students can only play and pause the video.

This setting is only available to Vimeo Pro and Business accounts. If you enable the setting and the video controls still display, it’s likely because you don’t have the proper account type.

Setting: Disable Playback Speed

Enabling this setting removes users’ ability to choose the playback speed of their videos.

This setting is only available to Vimeo Pro accounts. If you enable the setting and the playback speed options still display, it’s likely because you don’t have the proper account type.

Setting: Player Color

Configure the player branding primary color. This color is used for the play button and progress bar.

Setting: Disable Title

When enabled, it hides the video title from the embedded player.

Setting: Disable Byline

When enabled, it hides the video owner’s username from the embedded player.

Setting: Disable Portrait

When enabled, it hides the video owner’s avatar from the embedded player.

Vimeo also has settings within the embed settings, such as disabling specific parts of the play bar if you’re looking for a higher level of customization
