Question

There is UIWebView approach to play YouTube video inside native IPhone Application. Does anybody tried to do the sane for vimeo?

Was it helpful?

Solution 3

It is only possible when user has shared his video using "plus" account. Otherwise vimeo will render static image in Iphone.

OTHER TIPS

It's only possible if Vimeo supports HTML5 video, which looks like it does.

NSString *htmlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:

@"<html>"
@"<body>"
@"<meta name = \"viewport\"content = \"initial-scale = 1.0, user-scalable = no\"/>"
@"<iframe src=\"http://player.vimeo.com/video/8118831title=0&amp;byline=0&amp;portrait=0&amp;color=008efe&amp\";autoplay=1&amp;loop=1 width=\"320\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\">"
@"</iframe>"
@"<body style=\"background:#000;margin-top:0px;margin-left:0px\">"
@"</object></div></body></html>",@"http://www.vimeo.com/8118831"
];

Now just use loadHTMLString to play the video in your application.
