What to Youtube and Vimeo and it seems the game of cat and mouse. When one throws a novelty, in just a few days the other follows. This time, after just one day after YouTube launched its HTML5 player in a more generalized, Vimeo he continues to offer a similar version in all your videos .
The player interface on Vimeo HTML5 is that you can see in the image above: exactly the same as the Flash player on the page but with the advantages of that load instantly ( without having to see the typical loading animation ), do not consume excessive resources CPU and do not need any additional plug in your browser.
As with Youtube,
this feature is still experimental and is only compatible with newer versions of Chrome and Safari (you can also use Internet Explorer with Chrome Frame). What we can safely say is that seeing the way they are taking online video portals, flash plugin not be as easy as before .
To test the player HTML5 all we have to do is
open any video from Vimeo and click on the link ‘Switch to HTML5 player’ in the lower right. Remember that you must use one of the browsers.
