The latest Vimeo update offers faster speeds, embedded Video On Demand payments, translated subtitles and much more.<\/h2>\n

\"Vimeo\"<\/p>\n

With it\u2019s sleek design and professional following, Vimeo is undoubtedly the best web player for filmmakers. However with today\u2019s announcement<\/a>, Vimeo has improved their product even more with the following updates:<\/p>\n

Loading Times are Twice as Fast<\/h3>\n

Due primarily to the switching over from Flash to HTML 5<\/strong>, the loading time after the play button has been hit is now cut in half. This is huge for mobile devices, as audiences are increasingly watching their films on phones and tablets. This update works no matter if a video is playing straight off of Vimeo or embedded on another site.<\/p>\n

Embedded Video On Demand Payments<\/h3>\n

More exciting than the title implies, Video On Demand payments make it possible to charge a viewer to watch content on Vimeo. With only taking 10 percent, Vimeo\u2019s On Demand payment system has an overhead that is already\u00a0much<\/strong>\u00a0lower than Amazon<\/strong><\/a>. Used in conjunction with social media a viewer can now watch a trailer on Twitter, Facebook, etc., then instantaneously pay to view the entire film in the same viewing window. This new feature can be embedded on any website but you must be a\u00a0PRO<\/a> member to use it.<\/p>\n
