Recently broke because progressive removed from json

[Janneman84]

This package assumes request.files.progressive to be present in the json, but progressive seems to be removed now, causing code 4 errors.

example:
https://player.vimeo.com/video/783455878/config

request.files.hls.cdns is still present but the current logic doesn't check for it because it already threw the error. The code may need to be structured a little bit differently so when it doesn't find progressive it then checks for cdns.

Hi, what about code 4 errors? Do you know if this will also solve code 4? We suddenly started getting an error
Error Domain=ph.hercsoft.HCVimeoVideoExtractor Code=4 "Failed to retrive mp4 video url" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Failed to retrive mp4 video url, NSLocalizedFailureReason=Failed to retrive mp4 video url}

[Janneman84]

Sorry I meant code 4. I created a PR with a fix. In the meantime you can try using my fork:

[laviniamonenciu-westaco]

Thank you.

What about hash links? there's an error: "domain: "ph.hercsoft.HCVimeoVideoExtractor" - code: 3"

[Janneman84]

If you remove the hash it should work, it only needs the id.

The current code just looks at the last path component of the url and assumes it's the id. I updated it to look for the first all-digit path component instead. If you use my fork update the package and it should work.

Another option is to use the endpoint that lets you get the video id from url:
https://vimeo.com/api/oembed.json?url=https://vimeo.com/192207770/0faf1dd09d

However this would mean having to do another call, slowing things down even more.

[laviniamonenciu-westaco]

But for example for: "https://vimeo.com/605783608/493d2ee578" it still doesn't work with the code above. code 3 error still shown

[Janneman84]

I did some research and found that sometimes the hash needs to be added as h parameter, like so:
https://player.vimeo.com/video/605783608/config?h=493d2ee578

I'll need to make a few modifications, stay tuned.

[Janneman84]

Ok I updated my fork with hash support. Let me know if it works.

[superm0]

I just merged the PR and publish a new version, 0.0.5. kindly try it out. appreciate your contribution @Janneman84, you rock🤘

[budidino]

Not sure why, but I don't get the version 0.0.5 when updating pods.

I had to update my Podfile to target the specific commit:

pod 'HCVimeoVideoExtractor', :git => 'https://github.com/superm0/HCVimeoVideoExtractor.git', :commit => '22039673d5f04899a76253d3545bda4981bca520'

@Janneman84 since 3 months back you apply a solutions and that works fine but now again we faced the problems will you please check again??

[Janneman84]

If you open a config url in a browser you now get a code 403 and the page says they're having a little trouble.
https://player.vimeo.com/video/605783608/config?h=493d2ee578

I hope this is just temporary and will get fixed by them soon.

[nivritgupta]

@Janneman84 it seems that this error not fixed by them self.

[Janneman84]

It looks like the endpoint is no longer supported. I believe it's still possible to get mp4 urls if you have an access token, but only of your own videos. You'll need to build back-end infrastructure for this.

For the rest it looks like you're stuck using the html player using a WKWebView...
