Vimeo Metabox

Location: Post editor on enabled video post types (Movies, Short Videos, Episodes)

The Vimeo metabox connects individual posts to Vimeo Pro/Business videos.

Vimeo URL field

Paste a Vimeo video URL (e.g. https://vimeo.com/123456789) into Vimeo URL, then click Load Video Data.

When Vimeo is connected, MediaBlaster fetches:

• HLS stream URL → Media URL
• Duration, quality, format
• Tags and description (when Vimeo Settings allow)
• Title (when title import is enabled)
• Featured image thumbnail

Imported values populate rovidx_smarttv_* meta used by Roku feeds.

Upload to Vimeo

When Enable Vimeo Uploads is on and OAuth is connected, an Upload to Vimeo panel appears:

1. Select a local video file
2. Start upload — progress polls via AJAX
3. On completion, the Vimeo URL and metadata can be loaded into the post

Requires sufficient Vimeo account storage and upload API permissions.

Prerequisites

• Enable Vimeo Integration on General Settings
• Integrations (Vimeo OAuth) completed
• Import preferences under Vimeo Settings

Bulk alternative

For many videos, use Vimeo Mass Import instead of per-post loading.
