Our ideos are viewable in a variety of different qualities, ranging from 360p to 8K. In “Auto” mode, the player switches between all available qualities to accommodate changes in the viewer’s Internet, processing speed, and player size. The quality of your playback experience is largely dependent on how your ISP (Internet Service Provider) or mobile provider connects to Vimeo’s playback servers. Keep in mind that your overall Internet speed can vary depending on many factors, including but not limited to: time of day, WiFi performance, other devices/ users utilizing your connection, and the strength of the signal provided by your ISP. The following table shows the minimum speeds required for each playback quality:
Quality Required Minimum Bandwidth
240p 500 kbps
360p 1 Mbps
720p 3 Mbps
1080p 7 Mbps
2K 12 Mbps
4K & up 22 Mbps
When a video plays in lower than expected quality, it’s likely because the viewer’s Internet speed (bandwidth) or computer processing speed cannot support higher quality playback. Viewers can manually force a particular quality by selecting the gear icon in the lower right corner of the player. (This may result in frequent buffering if the bandwidth does not meet the required minimum outlined above.) If you find the video to be laggy for one reason or another, then select the gear icon on the bottom right of the video and select a lower video quality.

There are various ways to quickly find resources. On the dashboard page, you can select the topic you are interested in. This takes you to a page with a list of resources sorted by delivery type (videos, articles, interviews or courses).
