[Plugin: ProPlayer] Vimeo not working consistently

    Yes, I read about IP blocking from vimeo, but I don’t think that’s happening. Had it working, then stopped, then had it working again. What changed? The image preview. I selected a frame for a thumbnail preview on vimeo and then it broke. Now in proplayer on my site I get

    Video not found
    http://vimeo.com/moogaloop/play/clip:1234567/2345678

    The thumbnail is the one that existed before I changed it on vimeo. It’s like it’s looking at an old file. I tried going back, didn’t work. I tried replacing the 1234567 (the real link id in vimeo with 2345678 (what showed in the error msg), but got

    Video not found
    http://vimeo.com/moogaloop/play/clip:2345678///q=sd

    I assume this means I got the wrong video.

    Any help is much appreciated.

    Think the issue is delay on vimeo’s side in changing how API works with different thumbnails. They compound this problem by delaying when the change is populated through the API. I believe when I changed the thumbnail on their site, it wasn’t registered immediately in however the plugin connects through the API.

    It’s working now and I’m not going to touch a thing.

    Except now, I need to get proplayer’s custom preview image to work which is why I tried all this in the first place.

    BTW, using Hybrid theme and “Old School” child theme.

    I was having issues with Vimeo displaying videos – specifically a “Video not found” error. I changed the Cache Timeout (minutes) setting under Settings > ProPlayer from 90 to 10 and it fixed the problem.

    Hope this helps some
