Review and import individual Vimeo videos into MediaBlaster, including supported metadata, thumbnails, playback details, and draft behavior.

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:

Select a local video file
Start upload — progress polls via AJAX
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.
